dc.description.abstractOver time, there have been new searches and techniques in the art of print painting, which dates\rback to cave paintings. Especially with Atelier 17, artists were encouraged to do experimental printing. There\rare many artists today who do experimental print. Karen Kunc, one of these artists, has also produced many\rworks based on experimentation in original printing. The artist, who mostly makes wood prints (engraving) by\rway of 'reduction', decides on the colors at the printing stage while drawing his sketches. She prepares her\rworks for printing by preparing \"negative\" and \"positive\" patterns for each color. In the printing phase, she\rusually uses paper templates to pass the color through the openings on the mold. The artist's performance\rdepends on the mood at the time of printing. Since she does not want to decide on the color in advance, she\rmakes random choices according to the course of the picture and moves step by step towards the resolution of\rthe picture. She not only printed prints that could hang, but also accordion-shaped booklets. In this study, the\rrole of Karen Kunc's psychology in the production of art was emphasized and descriptive analyzes were made\rabout some of her selected works. In these analyzes; It is seen how the artist transfers the world of images to\rhis works with the technique of print painting through experimentation. Pushing the boundaries of a primitive\rmaterial such as wood, the artist inspired by viewing and contemplating the forces of the natural world, uses\rimages such as mountains, stones, water, trees and roads in his works. Energy and enthusiasm are at the\rforefront in their prints. Kunc is a successful artist who, with her experimental approach, shows the audience\rwhat can be done by pushing the boundaries in original print.
