Description

Maki achieves a three-dimensional effect by creating a sculptural surface on the printing block. He works his designs in wet cement on the cut-out areas of a woodblock and textures the cement before it dries. Dampened paper is pressed into the irregular surface during printing, resulting in the raised areas on the print.
