Description
Monotype on aluminum plate
The creation of monotypes is considered as a graphic technique that supports innumerable experimental and plastic processes, which differs from the rest of engraving techniques in the non-multiplicity of the product. As the imprint on the support is not permanently fixed, it is the pigment used by the artist that creates the transferred image, making it impossible to obtain more than one image.
The main purpose of this workshop is to make known this curious engraving system by approaching both people who already have knowledge of engraving and those who do not, but who feel the concern to discover this technique in order to experiment and take full advantage of the wide range of possibilities offered by this way of doing.
