A collagraph print is a type of printmaking technique where a plate is created by adding various materials and textures to a flat surface. The plate is then inked and pressed onto paper or another suitable printing surface to create a unique print. The term "collagraph" combines the words "collage" and "graph," highlighting the collage-like nature of the plate.
