CHINE-COLLE & LINO BLOCK PRINTMAKING
Instructed by Paloma Núñez-Regueiro
Saturday, March 8, 10am-4pm
Class Size: Maximum 8
Chine-collé is a printmaking technique that involves transferring an image onto a thin, colored paper that is bonded to a thicker support paper. In this workshop the Chine-Collé technique will be used conjunction with linoleum block carving and printing. Each participant will produce in a set of two-layered, multi colored block prints.
The word "chine-collé" comes from the French words chine, which means tissue and collé, which means glued. It results in a two-layered paper support: a tissue-thin paper, cut to the size of the linoleum block, and a larger, thicker support paper below.
Both the tissue and the support sheet are placed on top of the inked block and run together through the printing press. The process creates a subtle, delicate backdrop to the printed image. Paloma will guide you in this step by step process to create colorful prints made from only one carved plate.
This is an image based linoleum carving workshop. Come prepared with ideas of what your print might look like or images that you plan to carve. If you have an idea involving text, keep in mind that this will need to be hand carved as a mirrored image, from the linoleum material.
Linoleum carving is a common method used by printers to create illustrations and other shape-based elements in their print projects.
Cost of workshop includes materials, instruction by S-R staff and takeaway prints. Paper in this workshop is from French Paper Company, a small Michigan Paper Mill around for more than 140 years.
