Haniboi's Process
Haniboi’s process is unique in the sense that he treats his prints as 3D objects or renditions of possible 3D objects. Haniboi’s limited edtition prints are predominantely screen printed, however his use of oil based inks create the glazed appearance to each paper based artwork, which stays true to his love of the plastic product aesthetic.
