Collagraphs_Text, Multiples and Meaning_11









Plate 11 - I reviewed plate 10 – the automated writing worked, but I was hoping to achieve a more chaotic, automated emotive text in the form of a mask, so I continued to glue aluminium foil with text onto the mask and the background.

1. and 2. on rice paper
3. - 5. heavyweight cartridge paper A3.

So, at the end of the excercise, I realised that I enjoyed the concealed text, rather than readable text - I enjoyed the process of experimenting with hints of words, ideas, and found that text may not be readable – it just needs to communicate an idea.
