Arches paper have been in operation since 1492 in Vosges region of France. The Arches paper mill is now the only paper mil in France to manufacture all its fine art and printing papers using cylinder moulds.

The technique implemented through the editions I first employed in the late 1980s. This includes, hand printed mono prints using a custom, hand built printing press which uses my automobile to apply pressure with incredible accuracy.
