Laser Cutting Imagery


I engraved a raster image using the laser cutter onto 3mm MDF and 2mm mount board. I created these initial samples to test out the visual outcome of this technique.
The idea of me using this process, is to embed the image of my Grandma onto a material, just like my memories of her are embedded into my mind.



The image turned out a lot clearer when engraved onto the mount board rather than the MDF. I like the effect that this technique gives as it makes the image look quite old-fashioned. This therefore makes it obvious that it is an image from the past.
I will experiment and develop this idea further.
