Post printed stone, 2025

76 x 103 cm

Lithographic stones, pallet, graining sand, print folded to a bag


I wanted to bring lithographic process more visible to the viewer by showing the plate 300kg limestone with post printed image on it, drawing on the stone represents a dinosaur like creature, for the lithostone is practically a fossil made from sea animal shells and exoskeletons that died millions of years ago. therefore an ancient animal is interesting subject to draw to the stone, also it has this kind of sci-fi camp aesthetic that i liked to study with a drawing.
