Conclusions


Problems to be solved are as follows:

  • Research about the structure and the function of gum arabic
  • Protease is able to resolve size or not
  • Research about cross-linker and acid-resistant of agar
  • Get the Pattern of the Annual Rings on the plywoodgraph
  • Re-draw on waterless plywoodgraph
  • Improve the toothpick baren


Finding new material and technique will be very important for the future of lithography. Planography is able to make diverse expression as well as making reproduction print; the advantage of planography is the high liberty.

My proposal might be limited to my individual research, but it may help artists and extends their field of activity. For that purposes, I would like to seek the unknown world for discovering new unique techniques and materials. Seeing unknown material and culture in all the world will be connected to finding new technique.

The research of plywoodgraphy has the potential to be a critical program that I believe could influence the history of art and expressivity through studio art, and I hope my diligence may help be the genesis of new knowledge and contribute to artistic activity.
