Roundabouts - Textiles and Fashion - Manutex Printing


In the forth roundabout session we attended the option Textiles and Fashion. In this session we experimented with mark marking in the form of manutex printing; a form of pattern printing that can only be printed once, unlike most printing making.


When manutex printing you draw your chosen image or pattern onto the silkscreen and pull it through the screen using a print paste on to material. 


Rather then print onto cartridge paper I experimented with appropriating fashion magazine images. This wasn't very successful because the paper had been printed on previously meaning that the ink didn't soak in.
