英語與絹印 English Plus Screen Printing @ 倫敦藝術大學

Screen printing is a printing technique that uses a woven mesh to support an
ink-blocking stencil. The attached stencil forms open areas of mesh that
transfer ink as a sharp-edged image onto a substrate. A roller or squeegee is
moved across the screen stencil, forcing or pumping ink past the threads of the
woven mesh in the open areas.

Screen printing is also a stencil method of print making in which a design is
imposed on a screen of silk or other fine mesh, with blank areas coated with an
impermeable substance, and ink is forced through the mesh onto the printing
surface. It is also known as "silk screening" or "serigraphy".
