THE HYBRID "INNOVATIVE TECHNICAL EXPERIMENTS TO INTEGRATE RELIEF PRINTING MEDIUM FILMS WITH THE TECHNIQUES OF BICHROMATE PRINTING ON SILKSCREEN"

This research addresses creative, technical and experimental solutions for printmaking to integrate silkscreen printing techniques with relief printing to produce a creative hybrid formative work. Therefore, the researcher printed thin transparent films in black fatty ink by using relief linoleum blocks, then he used them as thin films for bichromate printing on screen printing plates, which is known as the silkscreen printing. Thus, the researcher attempted to explore new horizons throughout these applications and preparing innovative experimental space for artists by discussing this applied research, through which the researcher transforms the monochromatic relief prints into multi-colored prints executed in silkscreen technique. This hybrid printmaking is distinguished by its content and form of distinctive graphic state for the relief printmaking and its specifications of engravement and cuttings. This hybrid printmaking added special status because of those colors that printed in silkscreen technique. The research reviewed some experiments of hybrid printed works; such as the mixed media, interactive, installation, assemblage and hybrid arts. The researcher produced some colorable designs derived from girl fashions as suitable visual stimulator for assessing his technical experiment and proper for selecting the color mixtures of the hybrid works, which were invented throughout using the experimental creative technique.
