- it really really doesn't work at all.
Never try it unless you want this
to happen.
BUT IT DOES LOOK ABIT KEWL.
- "A happy accident."
The whole idea of foiling onto acetate was to give the look
of a matt finish on a shiny surface. Generating a tactile form
of intrigue, reflecting the nature of the work - 'forcing some
kind of sense to take over' i.e. the way in which i've laid out
the type on the page for the poems forces the viewer to read
it to themselves in a way they wouldn't usually- like an
abstract, more structured form of deconstructivism.
My idea now is to try and mimic the image below to get the
same look. The image below is just the back of the acetate-
with the black ink showing through and a grainy white back
ground from where the foil has failed me. Looking through
the documentation, the white background with black type
communicate much more clearly - my next step is to try and
make this technique work successfully.
