Printmaking



Various lino cut experiments 
This week we were tasked with making prints along the theme of light. I made this concentric circle pattern which is inspired by waves of light rippling outward.
I chose this pattern, though, with the intention of printing it twice over itself to replicate light interference.

'Interference of waves from two point sources' -Wikipedia
Double prints of varying divergence.
I really liked these, they turned out pretty much exactly how I pictured them in my mind.
A similar effect can be observed with ripples in water caused by ducks or raindrops.
My favorite print of the series and a colourful variation.

The famous double slit experiment that proves that light can behave like a wave and a particle.

We will be developing our techniques and concepts in the coming weeks. I am excited to see where this goes!
