100 Carapau
My bookmark is a reproduction of an original gyotaku print of ‘carapau’ (horse mackerel) Trachurus trachurus.
The fish used for this project were purchased at Olhão fish market, freshly caught that morning in the Ria Formosa.
After making a few prints, they were washed, grilled and eaten. Delicious!
One original print was chosen and an edition of 100 was reproduced from this. These
were cut out in the shape of a fish, signed, numbered and laminated.
