Photographic Silkscreen

A photograph, pushed through the screen.

A serigraph language that keeps the photographic origin of the image while flattening it into hard posterised steps. Cyan, magenta, yellow and a dark key print through separate screens at different angles, so overlaps create new hues and edges fringe with misregistration. Independent translucent colour fields float behind or across the subject, squeegee pulls streak the flats, and the unprinted paper stays stark white.

Photographic Silkscreen shown across eight consistent reference subjects

One visual language across portrait, fashion, interior, architecture, process, object, botany, and landscape.

The same style, under different pressure.

From expression to silhouette

Faces and full silhouettes reveal how the style handles identity, proportion, and clothing. No drawn outlines; edges come from hard posterised tonal jumps in the photographic separations, softened only by ink bleed.

From room to threshold

An interior and an architectural threshold test depth, light, and spatial rhythm at two different scales. Collage-like stacking where floating geometric colour fields sit independently of the photographic subject, with depth from overlap order rather than perspective.

From making to object

A process image and a still life show whether the treatment stays tactile both in motion and at rest. Coarse rotated halftone dots in the midtones, chromatic fringing from plate offset, squeegee drag striations, ink spatter and slight bleed.

From botany to ritual

Organic forms and a shared food ritual put color, softness, and visual appetite under pressure. Translucent cyan, magenta and yellow layers with a dark key; overlaps mix into greens, vermilions and indigos while highlights stay as bare paper.

From palette to landscape

A close material study and an open landscape show how the same sensibility travels from detail to horizon. Multi-screen photographic serigraph in translucent process inks on heavy white wove paper
