“Something to Remember”
A DIY Workshop of Transferring Images with Gel Medium




MCM College Fellow, Vivian Chaplin (ELC) and Vince Li (ELC & CKY College Fellow) held a special DIY Workshop of transferring images using gel medium. More than fifteen students and staff gathered in Fellows’ Salon for this artistic workshop.

Participants brought with them laser-printed images which were then transferred on to a canvas. Vivian and Vince explained that the transfer process required an application of acrylic gel medium over the images. Students then placed their images face down into the wet medium and allowed them dry thoroughly. The paper backing of the images were soaked with water and then removed. A translucent image becomes embedded within the acrylic medium.
