silkscreen
November 19, 2005…shantung and tussah lungs, thick sheets of lungs…
i took a silkscreening workshop last year, part of audra‘s pre-wedding celebrations. the silkscreen i made has a couple of handwritten excerpts from Wide slumber for lepidopterists on it, as well as two neat dictionary definitions of ‘lepidopterous’ and ‘somni-’. today, i decided to silkscreen. i pulled out a black dress and a raspberry scarf, and silkscreened the definitions in white ink. they’re drying currently, and i’m waiting to see if they’ll actually be wearable printmaking pieces, or if i just fucked up a couple items of clothing.
