The technique of suicide printing is called that because once you put filler on the screen, there is no going back. The next layer is not designed or burned like a traditional screen. The next layer consist of what parts of the previous layer were not covered up with screen filler. The result is more organic printing, and is great for capturing value without burning multiple different screens. The subject of these prints were going to be my favorite food, pomegranates. The juice patina was used as an additional ink and added to the sensor reality of this piece.
