Abstract

Contemporary printmaking focuses on producing a series of monoprints produced by the alternative printmaking matrix. The primary objectives of this research are to investigate the suitability of jelly as an alternative matrix for printmaking and to create a series of printmaking works based on the marks made by the jelly plate. This project aims to develop a series of artworks composed of the mark-makings generated by the alternative matrix. The process of exploration of the jelly plate making to establish the final consistency of the jelly plate as a potential matrix suitable for producing monoprints. The process of trial and error is practised in finding the right ingredients for jelly plate making. The final matrix will be produced as the consistency of the ingredients is found. Hence, producing mark-making from collected material results in a beautiful pattern-making process.
