Polymer Plate Printing Project


For the last project we are exploring the polymer plate printing process and really embracing the medium. The theme for the project is "-made" and each of us has been given a different prefix. My prefix is "re," so the first thought that popped into my mind for remade was models on the cover of magazines who have been "remade" in Photoshop. I then cut out different pieces of models' faces in beauty magazines and put together a new face from the smaller pieces to remake a face. I even cut out letters to form the word remade, which is one of the limitations for the project as well, combining text and image. The other limitations for the plate design was that it has the dimensions of 4x6  and use two colors. Each color will be on its own plate, so we also had to separate the colors and keep in mind if we wanted only one color to show, or a combination of the two colors overlapping.
