This is the final woodblock print. It's 180cm by 1m. This is the largest size the presses can print without bringing in a steam roller! It's also the largest print I've ever done. Since it's my final year of college I'm pushing myself to work on a much larger scale than what I'm used to. I printed it on paper as well but this one is printed on a bed sheet because I wanted to make a banner out of it since the subject matter is political. This print took me 9 days to carve and a day to draw the design on as I drew it from memory. Since my project is about social commentary I wanted it to be open to the public so I hung it in the hall of the college the day Trump won the election so people could react to it.
