Since I passed out a lot of these "Ein Stein" linoleum tiles since May 4th -- to make COLLBORATIVE TESEELLATION PRINTS -- I had to carve one of these "hat" shapes myself :
and then redrew it on another tile
I made a "rubbing" with my pencil
to anticipate how this linocut would print
As soon as we get a few of these "Einstein hat" tiles, we will start printing them...as soon as next Tuesday (May 14th) during Henry Morales' drawing session:
Ellie is already carving
her "hat" linocut tile
UPDATE (May 14): We pulled our first collaborative print in Henry's studio on May 14, 2024:
NOTE that this "hat' shape had been discovered a little over a year ago. I first blogged about the idea on April 29th, and then described the whole concept in a post on the BUCKET EXHIBITIONS blog -- Exquisite TESSELLATION Prints -- but perhaps this YouTuber below explains things more clearly (though he is a little mathematical):
UPDATE (May 14): I just gave a box of 20 laser cut linoleums to Anne. This box makes the project nice and compact -- so that we could send this box to anyone in the country with a press, and let them make their own collaborative prints:
