What is Offset printing?
Offset lithography is a printing technique where the inked image is first transferred (offset) from a plate to a rubber blanket and then to the printing surface. This method combines the lithographic process, which relies on the repulsion of water and oil, to keep non-printing areas ink-free by attracting a water-based film. Offset lithography was originally developed to reduce costs in reproducing artwork and is widely used for high-volume printing due to its efficiency and ability to produce sharp, consistent images.

Political Pop often juxtaposed iconic images from Chinese propaganda with Western consumer culture, highlighting the tensions between tradition and modernization.
Graphite is a form of carbon commonly used as the core material in pencils. It can be compressed to various levels of hardness, allowing for different shading effects in drawing. In powdered form, graphite can be applied with a brush for broader, softer applications. Graphite erases easily and was first discovered in the 1500s in England's Lake District.
