Alchemy Editions: Printing With Gold
The Alchemy Editions highlight my renewed passion for printmaking, specifically screen-printing. Over the past year, I've perfected a gold foiling technique, introducing a fresh visual style for me. Click here to see my printing process.
Initially, I was concerned the gold's reflectivity might be restrictive, making the prints look right only at specific angles and lighting. However, I discovered the gold foil's dynamic nature made each angle and light condition reveal a unique version of the artwork. This process enchanted me, as I came to see light as a medium. While I shape the image and layout, the artwork's look continually changes.
The vibrant nature of these pieces aligns with the alchemical theme of my artwork. They draw out hidden desires from shadows—caused by shame, fear, or the unknown—and illuminate their inherent beauty and divine energy.
