Screen 3

The numeric title situates Screen 3 within an iterative series, the third in a sequence that explores the optical and material properties of the silkscreen passage among Jung's combined techniques. The word screen carries a double charge here — referring at once to the photo-emulsion stencil process and to the partitioning function of Japanese byobu and shoji, surfaces that filter rather than depict. Layered mokuhanga registers transmit broad fields of plant-derived color across [washi](/glossary/washi), while silkscreen overlays introduce sharper-edged geometric forms whose flat opacity sits against the woodblock's softer absorption. Intaglio markings, possibly drypoint or aquatint passages, articulate a third register of mark-making. The result is a stratified surface in which each medium retains its tactile signature rather than dissolving into a unified image. Screen 3 is characteristic of Jung's pedagogical breadth at the University of Iowa, where she teaches intaglio, relief, mokuhanga, natural dyes, and silkscreen, and where her studio output regularly tests the seams between those processes.
