Dry Point

The Drypoint category showcases works defined by immediacy and expressive texture. Unlike other methods, drypoint involves incising images directly into a copper plate with a sharp needle, creating a “burr” that catches the ink to produce rich, velvety lines with a distinctively raw edge.

In this collection, Donald V. uses the technique to capture moments of tension, cultural memory, and social witness. From the layered voices of Albanian polyphony to the atmospheric smoke of modern protest, these prints transform the physical act of engraving into a powerful visual language of resilience and human experience.
