Etching

What is etching?

Etching is a technique where a design is created on a metal surface by using a strong acid or mordant to eat away the unprotected parts of the metal, leaving the desired pattern in relief (intaglio). In modern art and manufacturing, different chemicals may be used depending on the material being etched.

C-Print

A C-type print, also known as a chromogenic print, is a photographic print made from a color negative or slide. The print is created on chromogenic paper, which contains three emulsion layers, each sensitized to a different primary color. After exposure, the paper is processed in a series of chemical baths, where each layer reacts to the chemicals to produce the final image. C-type prints are known for their rich color depth and are widely used in fine art and commercial photography.

Eat Art

EAT (Experiments in Art and Technology) was a movement formed to foster collaborations between engineers and artists. It facilitated direct, person-to-person connections between these two groups. The movement was originally launched in 1967 by artists Robert Whitman and Robert Rauschenberg, along with engineers Fred Waldhauer and Billy Klüver. EAT carried out various projects and activities that expanded the role of artists in contemporary society, encouraging the integration of art and technology.

Linocut

Linocut is a printmaking technique similar to woodcut, where a sheet of linoleum is used as the relief surface. The design is carved into the linoleum using a V-shaped gouge or chisel, creating raised areas that form a mirror image of the final print. Ink is applied to the raised areas with a roller, and the linoleum sheet is then pressed onto fabric or paper. The printing can be done by hand or with a press.
