About the Item
Skein Flock, by Kelvin Mann
Medium: Woodblock with silk screen and flock fibers
Image size: 29.5 x 29 inches
Edition of 50
Kelvin Mann's "Flock" prints are made by screen printing onto paper with a tinted ink/glue and placing it on an earthed steel plate. A sieve charged with 60,000 volts containing flock fibres is subsequently waved over it. The flock fibres, attracted by the earth rush towards the surface and are embedded vertically in the glue achieving a velvet like finish.
The flock may be applied onto raw paper, etching, carborundum or gold and silver leaf.
Born in 1972 in Dunedin, New Zealand. Educated at the Otago School of Fine Art, NZ. Employed as an animation artist by Vidmark Television, NZ from 1994-1996. In 1997 he moved to Dublin to become a member of the Graphic Studio Dublin. He has worked as a printmaker at Stoney Road Press in Dublin since 2002 and shows in Ireland, the United Kingdom, New Zealand and Australia.
Artist Statement:
"I enjoy mechanics and the exposed working of the machine. Machines that look like something from the industrial revolution, but poorly designed. It is as if they might have once existed, but didn’t stand the test of time. With the benefit of hindsight they were a ridiculous idea. I am fascinated by them, not so much the workings of them but that they work at all.
Titles are important to me. I enjoy word play and visual puns. I like them to be amusing, not in a humourous sense, but to be engaging and hold the viewer’s interest in a W. Heath Robinson sort of way."
