Two original prints (A2 size paper).

This series of silkscreen prints emerged from an experimental layering process—starting with expressive brush drawings on translucent paper, built up with multiple acrylic layers until deeply saturated. These rich underpaintings became the basis for intricate India ink transfers, which were then screen-printed, blending the spontaneity of drawing with the precision of printmaking.

The result is a striking interplay between organic gesture and graphic clarity. Dark, velvety textures sit alongside crisp linear motifs, forging a visual language that balances fluidity and structure. These prints embody a contemporary approach to silkscreen, where drawing, texture, and composition converge to create compelling, rhythmical works.
