Artwork description:

Representation of Nigerian singer, musician and political activist Fela Kuti
Limited edition produced using manual printing techniques, fixing stencils cut by hand using X-Acto blades to silkscreen printing frames. Tones and shades are superimposed on each other, in a radical departure from usual silkscreen printing techniques. Executing this type of monoprint involves constant interplay between pre-production and then improvisation in the actual printing session.
Original size: 50 x 70 cm. Unframed.

Materials used:

Ink and acrylic paint on 370 g card
