To capture the
essence as closely and accurately as possible, using different mediums like
painting and print-making, the exhibits depict diverse thoughts and techniques
– the most visited one being etching.
The
practice of print making helps create prints by transferring ink from
a matrix or through a prepared screen to a sheet of paper or other
material. Multiple impressions printed from the same matrix form
an edition Common types of matrices that the students use include: metal
plates, usually copper or zinc, or polymer plates
for engraving or etching; stone, aluminium, or polymer for
lithography; blocks of wood for woodcuts and wood engravings;
and linoleum for linocuts. Screens made of silk or synthetic fabrics are
used for the screen-printing process and the like. Several
forms of printmaking include iron engraving, woodcut and aquatints.
Artists
find inspiration from their immediate surroundings and at times, even attempt
at giving expression to a deeper thought or social issue.
