Perfect Imperfection: Block Prints
In a world saturated with machine-generated perfection, there is a charm to the imperfections found in handcrafted creations. Hand block printing embodies this charming imperfection perfectly. The artisan’s rhythm – from the steady hand when pressing the wooden block onto the pure cotton fabric to the vibrant imprint left behind – no matter how experienced the artisan is, can be disrupted, leading to variations. An uneven pressure or even a rogue speck of dust can cause variations to the imprints – from slight misalignment, overlapping edges or a touch of extra ink. These are testaments to the human element in the creation process and that the item is one-of-a-kind.
