The special screen printing technique of terragraphy was developed in Israel. It is a widespread technique in which the printing ink is enriched with sand and additionally reinforced with binding agents such as silicone or oil (zimmermann-heitmann.de). Nitsch is known for using this technique in many of his works. ‘I was always interested in the substance, the matter of the colour. I wanted to dig into the paint, knead the colours.’ (Hermann Nitsch)
