About

After the reflection is a 2025 series of four screenprints with letterpress. We combined layered screenprinted colour fields with letterpress, impressing dense passages of repeated text into heavyweight Somerset Satin paper to build the tactile depth and meditative density his window works are renowned for.

The Kings & Queens suite of prints required a formidable, multi-disciplinary approach in the studio. We layered heavy relief inks and delicate silkscreen washes, finished with meticulously hand-applied gold leaf.

To produce The Four Seasons, a 2024 series of twelve original screenprints, we layered varying ink types and finishes, our methodology emulated the rhythmic repetition of Khan’s work to build the density and richness of texture he is renowned for.
