Subject: Molded paper pulp
Has anyone had experience in treating paper pulp paintings, specifically the "Wounds" series by an Indian artist called Somnath Hore? He took prints from moulded cement matrices (which in turn were taken from originals made in clay) on paper pulps pressed flat, and without colour. An image can be seen at <URL:http://www.criticalcollective.in/Images/Essay/Big/Untitled,%201972%20(2)_1089582489_154.jpg> I have not been able to find much information relating to his technique (and therefore conservation), unfortunately, so any help would be appreciated.
