MAKING THE MONOTYPES

Fred Swart of Die Ateljee is the maker and designer behind the monotypes that form the foundation of this website and poster project. This short film speaks to the production process: over several months each of these prints was constructed in response to the 6 key frames of the project. The images produced draw from the curriculum, responding to the persons and built objects centred in this project, and offer a graphic response as to how they might interrupt “Architecture with an A”. Hand-cut, pressed and printed, each of these monoprints is an embodied labour of care.
