These are from the Newsprint collection. Made by collaging sections of newspaper in varied font sizes and types to make a silk screen. The old style process! Dye resists have been screenprinted onto the nylon. Each part has been twice dyed by hand, so the text is coffee-coloured with graduated sepia edging. It has a fine matt surface on both sides similar in appearance to frosted glass as the nylon has been glass-bead blasted (a similar process to sand blasting but much finer).The silver earpostsare soldered onto a brass cast unit held within the Newsprint nylon top section. The small cast unit has a raised bead. 2.5 cm diametre.
