GRAFFITI, noun [gruh-fee-tee]. 1. leaving a mark somewhere and feeling pleased when it's still there a week later 2. the act of writing your name everywhere because you're having an existential crisis and you're scared you don't actually exist 3. a visual style that old men co-opt to sell new things to young people 4. the art of drawing cocks on all your friend's stuff. This is the first series of prints we have printed ourselves from start to finish. From buying all the equipment to release, it's been about four months of learning, printing and swearing every night as we pull prints in our down time. If you make a mistake whilst stenciling, it's pretty easy to try again soon after but if something goes wrong with a screen, you have to strip everything off, recoat it and the whole process just takes a lot of time and energy. But now...NOW! Now we're happy with our process, we are a lot quicker and we're proud of our results. This print series plays around with the idea of dictionary definitions and depending on how well it goes down, I've plenty more words I'd love to give a go in this series! Anyway, all prints are signed and numbered, along with the hand embossed seal of approval, which reads 'a nice bit of paper by pahnl'.
