The original silkscreen artwork has the particularity of being drafted by the author of the work directly, or carried out jointly between the silkscreen master, who dominates the technique and the artist.

This is an hand made process requiring a total immersion in the work, care and long work hours. The development of a limited number of serigraphs copyright requires deeply knowing the technique and effects of overlapping and inks.

For each color, positives need to be worked by hand (using opaque ink on a transparent or translucent acetate); a screen for each color needs to be prepared; the ink colors have to be carefully selected to be printed -playing with effects and qualities that eventually lead to a limited serie of silkscreen artwork, signed and numbered one to one by the artist-.

It is therefore a work of a great artistic value and an example of cooperation to enrich the result and these pieces are suitable for collectors and institutions seeking the highest level in editing original artwork.
