Screen printing. Monoprint (45.8 x 65 cm) on white Murillo Fabriano paper 360 g / m2, 100% Cellulose (50 x 70 cm). Limited Edition: 13/16 Monoprints. The pictorial effect was obtained using a small screen printing squeegee like a palette knife to paint and pouring more colors on the frame; in particular the colors, in a chiaroscuro function, were used to emphasize the subject. Slightly misregistered prints, small smudges and uneven ink deposits are purely intentional. For the work 4 screen printing frames were used.
