As one of my extended practice briefs I have designed and produced a screen print for an exhibition to be displayed within Colours May Vary as an extension of the Leeds Print Festival 2016.
The aim of the exhibition was to show off GF Smith's colourplan range of stock in an contemporary archive and so each participant was assigned one of the many choices and asked to produce a print for it.
I was given Factory Yellow and created a design inspired by yellow and black insects and entomology cabinets.
The final look of the exhibition is lovely, from a distance all the colours flow into each other creating a really nice spectrum. Up close details emerge and you can appreciate each piece of work as separate designs. I am also very pleased with my own contribution, it's a really nice illustration displaying lots of detail that's translated well into the screen printed medium. Also the high contrast of yellow and black makes for a very impactful design.
