Vintage Monoprint + Collagraph Hexagonal Print
Executed as a monoprint or collagraph on paper, this print demonstrates the tactile possibilities of printmaking, where the process itself becomes as expressive as the final image.
The composition is built through the layering of inked textures rather than drawn marks. The lower half is defined by a rhythmic field of hexagonal forms, created by pressing an inked found object—likely bubble wrap or a honeycomb mesh—into the paper. Each impression carries subtle variations in pressure and ink density, allowing the geometric pattern to shift between precision and irregularity.
Above, the ordered structure dissolves into an organic landscape of marbled forms and fluid textures. Ink has been manipulated directly across the printing surface before transfer, producing soft blooms, fractured edges, and tonal variation that evoke weathered stone, lichen, or natural mineral formations.
Presented in a simple oak frame with a generous mount, the work invites close viewing, where its layered surfaces and subtle imperfections reveal the hand of the maker.
