Potential of Waste Natural Fiber Composite for Printmaking Matrix in Artistic Practice

Natural fiber waste is an issue where the whole globe always talks about this waste to be utilized. Printmaking is one fine art discipline in which the work will transfer images from one matrix's surface to another's surface. Various techniques and methods in producing this printmaking work and artists always do various experiments and explorations that each look to significant output printmaking itself. This paper aims to explore the potential of natural fiber wastage as a substance to develop a matrix for printmaking in artistic practice. This research will be conducted in a semi-scientific laboratory and studio. Keywords: Printmaking, Fine Art, Natural Fiber Waste, Printmaking Matrix eISSN: 2398-4287 © 2022. The Authors.
