Summary

Collagraphs are prints that can be made in a number of ways: from collages; relief sculpture; caste plaster plates; carved, stripped and layered plates; plates painted with glues; or from a combination of all these methods. The flexibility of this process means that it is one of the most fluid approaches to printmaking and allows artists greater creative freedom than many other methods.
