experiment: stair frottage

frottage over wood.
8x10.


This price is an experiment in frottage, a Surrealist technique in which the art medium is applied to paper that rests on a patterned surface. Just think about the sixth grade project where you did gravestone rubbings with paper and crayons. I used a piece of wood left over from a stair construction project; using an intentionally unevenly coated brayer, I was able to produce a more faded effect.
