Visual Narratives: One Week Map Outcomes





Reflection
• Here are my final outcomes for the One Week Map. I started off rather systematically, ensuring the frames lined up with the registration sheet and that the ink was as strong as possible and, when I had achieved that, wanted to be as experimental as possible with this opportunity.

• I tried different techniques such as marbling, overprinting, ghost printing and misalignment. As I have done screen printing before I have already experimented with a few of these approaches - but marbling was an entirely new application. I loved how each print turned out different from the one previous and that with each pull of the squeegee the colours blended together much stronger.

• My favourite print of the set is my final one, where the marbling of the pink and purple was at it's strongest point and I moved each print a few centimetres away to give a repeated, almost three dimensional, look. It really plays with overlapping of symbols and imagery, variation in tone, repetition, and a distorted blurriness - perfectly capturing the day with the movement of the rain!
