HALBERD
HALBERD - 4 colour riso print on 120gsm 1,5 volume Munken paper. Medium blue, Orange, Yellow, Black.
This is a print based on illustrations from the 16th century I found instructing on proper halberd form. Much attention was paid to the combatants' fancy tudor slashed puff sleeves and impressive callipygian assets.
A celebration of extravagant and flamboyant masculinities past and present!
NOTE FOR RISO-NOVICES: risograph printers are mechanical duplicators. Like with screen-print or offset, each colour separation is printed separately, one by one, but risographs are inherently less precise and predictable. Minor imperfections, such as slight misregistrations, and variations in colour density and texture can occur and are part of the charm of the process!
