Collecting Crushed Cans

Collecting Crushed Cans

Collograph prints on paper, Sheffield 2018

Walking away from the city centre on main roads, I found eighty crushed cans in under an hour. The car flattened aluminium shapes provided ready-made print plates. These one off prints were made by inking up each can and using an hydraulic press to leave the impression on the paper. Each printed can is a different brand of drink.
