Print it Bold
Linocut is a modern avatar of the ancient relief technique of printing called ‘Woodcut’. As the earliest form of publication, books printed with woodcut presented a distinctive style of letters and illustrations that has fascinated many visual artists.
'Print it bold' was a workshop conducted at NID, Bangalore as a part of the International Open Electives course.
The workshop intended to undertake the process of relief block-making in the spirit of drawing along the way of Linocut printing that has laid the foundations of graphical image simplification providing clearer, simpler, bolder and expressive images compatible with the body of letters.
THE PRINTS
Personally, the course took ‘self-expression’ to a new level.
