About the different print techniques I use

Fine Art Photo Prints

For my photo prints I use Hahnemühle Baryta, 325 g/m² or similar high-quality photo papers. These fine art photo prints represent the highest standard of photographic reproduction, offering exceptional longevity and museum-quality results. Using state-of-the-art pigment printing, these prints deliver unparalleled detail, rich tones, and deep blacks, preserving the integrity of the original image. My photos are printed in personal consultation by specialised Berlin laboratories with whom I have been working for many years.

Each print is signed and stamped on the reverse for authenticity.

Unlike my limited Riso and screen print editions, Fine Art photo prints are often available in open editions, making them accessible to collectors while maintaining the highest artistic and archival standards.

Screen Prints / Serigraphy

A screen print, or silkscreen, is a distinctive printing technique that transforms a photograph into a work of art through a process called halftoning. The image is broken down into more or less tiny dots, then printed in one, two, or more color layers, each applied separately. For sizes up to A3, my screen prints are hand-pulled by me, resulting in unique variations that add to the charm and individuality of each piece.

Larger formats are semi-mechanically produced in a professional screen printing studio, ensuring consistent quality.

Riso Print Editions

A Riso print, or Risograph, is a unique form of printing that differs significantly from traditional photo prints, archival inkjet prints, or reproductions. Similar to screen printing, Riso printing applies one color at a time, layer by layer, using soy-based inks and a stencil duplicator. Each print is unique due to minor variations and imperfections, giving it a handcrafted charm that can’t be achieved with standard photo printing.

Riso prints are more affordable, making them an accessible option for art lovers seeking something original and distinctive.

Phototransfer / Gelatine Prints

The photo transfer prints I make with a gelatin plate are monoprints that combine the precision of photography with the organic unpredictability of gel printing, offering a unique print with each creation. Each print template can only be used once, which makes these monoprints unique. While the same photos can be used multiple times as templates, creating the same motif over and over again, the unique artefacts created during the transfer and printing process ensure that no two prints are exactly the same.
