Screen printing is a technique in which ink is pushed through a stretched mesh onto paper, one colour at a time. It gives flat, dense colours with a slight texture that a digital printer cannot reproduce. At MISCELANEA we sell screen prints by emerging artists, most of them limited and signed.
Why does a screen print cost more than a digital print?
Every colour needs its own screen and a hand-pulled pass, so runs are short and each copy varies slightly.
How should I look after it?
Frame it behind glass and keep it out of direct sunlight; the inks are stable, but paper yellows with light.
Where can I see them?
In our shop at Doctor Dou 16, Barcelona, and in this collection, with around 200 screen prints available.
