NOVAK

A tri-color risograph print, printed with soy-based ink on a RP3700 printer, “Novak” was featured in the Drums on Paper show by Authorized to Work in The US Press. The work represents a collage of portraits and images worn and kneaded into one another. Featuring images of famed tennis player Novak Djokovic and illustrious mid-century actress Kim Novak, "Novak" confronts the messy borders of gender, identity, and fame.

A digital printing technique using soy-based inks, the risograph process is similar to screen-printing in that each color in the composition requires its own pass. In turn, each print in a series is slightly unique, rendering imperfections in quality and output.
