Monotipias – L'Automàtica

Monotipias is a story of stains and gestures, moving, reproducing, and transforming. It all began with a series of monotypes, which gave me a thirst for exploration and a need to immerse myself in the technique. Later, together with my friends at Edições Senhora do Monte (Lisbon), we decided to publish them. Editing and publishing them required a combination of techniques: digitizing the prints, separating each color manually to prepare the print documents, and finally, the printing itself, a process carried out using offset and spot inks at L’Automàtica and taking three weeks.
