Paper Current

Aisha Rahman prints under the name Paper Current, building layered editions that combine architectural fragments, hand-cut stencils, and offset color fields. Her work began in community print shops and still carries the urgency and texture of shared production spaces.

Printmaking lets me preserve the evidence of process. I like when a work still shows its registrations, its slips, and the decisions that happened between one layer and the next.
