Conducting research on the production of copperplate prints.In recent years, I have been focusing on the characteristics of prints, such as "states" that are created as step-by-step test prints, and "variants" that are created by changing the printing method after the work is completed, and exploring the possibilities of this through experimental production. I'm looking for something.As an example, I am conducting research on the spatial expressions and effects created by reconfiguring printed works into three-dimensional shapes, starting from prints that are two-dimensional expressions printed on paper.
