Across the three months I focused on expanding my print-making skills experimenting with reduction lino-printing, and then quickly becoming obsessed with mono-printing using screen-printing methods - an entirely new medium for my creative practice.

I focused on fluidity, movement and texture - playing with the consistency of the paint, with different papers and fabrics. Using recycled and found materials to create expressive ways of dragging the paint across the screen to create vibrant abstract shapes and textures.

This was an exercise in using tactic and embodied feedback to create the final outcomes, being led by the process itself, rather than sticking to a pre-conceived idea of what it should look like. Embracing the chance processes of mono-printing and bringing it to a medium like screen-printing which is traditionally about fine exact replicable detail, was a lovely way to subvert the expected. Traditional and commercial screen-printing is about being able to print identical runs of prints and t-shirts, but for my outcomes each is unique and unreplicable, while using the same processes of traditional screen-printing.
