Torn Screen

Rough print screens with torn tonal mapping and uneven ink density.

Halftone screens made mass photographic printing possible from the late nineteenth century. Artists later degraded and misaligned those screens on purpose, celebrating the dot as texture rather than hiding it.

Torn screens and rough ink push the newspaper machine toward punk poster energy.
