Marjan Smit - Olieverf 1

Marjan Smit has focused on the dry needle technique. In this technique, lines are made with a sharp metal marker in a zinc or aluminium plate, without the use of an acid solution. The shallow grooves resulting from this cause a typically velvety tone on the paper on which it is printed. The metal plate and the sheet pass a large press of 980 kg three times, with different ink colours.

The work is not framed.

The work comes from a corporate collection.
