{"product_id":"trillium-no-1","title":"“Trillium No. 1” Tetra Pak Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eToday we share with you a new kind of adventure. I have been – for the last 97 days – learning the technique of dry point printing through observing the world around me, focusing on the day-to-day life of a flower, a goose couple, and of course, Pearl. Each year I set out on an adventure to learn a new process which helps me share Peg and Awl treasures whilst simultaneously offering me ever-desired new ways of seeing and storytelling. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis collection – \u003cem\u003eLittle Windows\u003c\/em\u003e – is made of trash and scrap from engraving to framing, and each little work is unique. I am hand-printing editions of 10 of each piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePS: In addition to using trash as my sub straight, I’ve printed on scrap paper from journals we make at Peg and Awl. Walter made frames out of scrap FSC certified oak from furniture and other treasures we make here. I used the rest of the wood scrap to heat up our sauna on Temperature Terrace, stop 6 on the map. The framer, too, rejoiced in using their scrap museum glass and board for the framing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"heading\" style=\"padding-top: 30px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTetra Pak Printing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTetra Pak is a Swedish company that specializes in their iconic and sustainable paper-based cartons, used for milks, broths, and my favourite ‚Äî rose water!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also a magical carton, in which, after enjoying and washing the contents, can be cut apart and used as a plate for print making using the dry point method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a sharp tool, engraving into the silver side of the plate is relatively simple. After engraving, the ink is spread onto the plate then wiped off, so ink remains in the engraved lines and wherever else darkness is desired. After wetting and blotting the paper, a sandwich of felt, scrap paper, inked plate, wet paper, top felt, is made ready for the press. After rolling the sandwich through the press, the etching comes to life! Each of these prints was made in this way with much trial and error and discovery! The frames were made in from scrap FSC certified Oak, scrap museum glass and matt board, making this a solidly ecologically sound treasure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peg and Awl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44247770726591,"sku":"OOAK","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0104\/5072\/files\/Trillium-No.1-2.jpg?v=1748539841","url":"https:\/\/pegandawlbuilt.pro\/products\/trillium-no-1","provider":"Peg and Awl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
