Recycled Paper
Self-made recycled paper is a project I started in my first year, but turned into a continuous hobby which later I have used here and there in other projects.
After my very first semester at ArtEZ I cleaned up my desk and what was left was a very big pile of prints on paper that I was going to throw away.
I felt bad to do that, but what else could I do with it? I decided to try to make paper from my paper. I turned it into an open lab project and experimented a lot with which paper I was using, colouring, paint and even made my own paper making frame.
After the project I didn’t stop and experimented even more. I found a way to print on it with an inkjet printer. More about prints on recycled paper.
