The comet #3 is an A3 riso print with a neon yellow image of a 'celestial body' shooting through a night sky. Inspired by an experiment with abstraction, and based on how we are all different but still have beauty within us.
This limited edition print is made with 4 bright riso colours namely: aqua blue, yellow, black and neon pink. There are only 40 prints made in total and each print is a unique version.
Riso print comet #3
For each print I use a Japanese printing technique called riso printing. This technique uses an environmentally friendly and rice-based ink which results in the fluorescent and cheerful hues that bring the prints to life. Because each color is a separate layer that goes through the riso printer, the layer sometimes shifts and each print has its own unique texture and character, making each print original and just a little bit different. It is a sustainable and unique way of printing
One of the characteristics of riso prints is that they never dry completely. They always remain a little 'wet', but fortunately they do not smudge unless you really rub over the print. So be careful when handling the riso prints. If the print does show smudges, you can remove the riso ink with an eraser.
