The students will explore various methods for creating relief prints or "matrices". By combining different techniques such as laser cutting, computer-controlled tools (CNC), polymer plates, and lead type printing, students will reflect on the concept of technological hybridation, i.e., the coexistence of techniques from different historical periods.
Students will be grouped and given the opportunity to develop a personal project in the form of printed sheets measuring 50 × 70 cm. Through an experimental approach, they will test the validity of a hypothesis by reproducing a phenomenon and varying its parameters.
At the end of the course, the printed sheets will be collected, folded, and bound to form an edition documenting the full range of their research.
