Photogravure

During my four month residency at Typa Print Centre, I focused on creating surrealist photogravures without the aid of a computer. The hands-on process shows an interaction between artist and artwork - something which is not found in photography.

In this video, I walk you through the process - starting by creating a silver gelatin print, turning it into a negative, converting it to a transparency, then transferring it to a copper plate to be etched.
