Tesaurus d'Art i Arquitectura Getty Institute 0000-00-00 2024-01-24 15:40:44 en stonecut300410252stonecut A relief printmaking process derived from woodcut, but using stone blocks as the plates into which a design is carved. This technique may be exclusive to Inuit printmakers living in the Cape Dorset area, an Inuit hamlet located on Dorset Island near Foxe Peninsula at the southern tip of Baffin Island in the Qikiqtaaluk Region of Nunavut, Canada. Stone is used here as it is a more plentiful resource than wood in the Arctic. Use of the process only dates from the early 1960s. stonecut (traducció pendent) stonecut (traducció pendent) 2026-03-30 20:40:13
