intaglio print using chine colle and etched plates with images of elm seeds, sine waves, elm seeds, particle physics tracks, and music by Lauren Gohara

Aggregates #22

intaglio, chine collé, debossing on Somerset paper

30 x 22 in

Intaglio print with chine collé. Altogether, nine 4x3 inch plates were used to create this print. Four plates contained etched images: of overlapping sine waves, a few bars of music, particle physics tracks, and elm seeds. The seeds are printed on Japanese paper applied by chine collé. To their left, the same paper appears alone, with no image. Four blank plates reinforce the debossed grid, framing the physicality of the paper itself.
