serigraphs
Ink-through-mesh prints
Serigraphs are prints made through silk-screen printing, where ink is forced through a fine mesh stencil onto paper or fabric.
The term sounds more artistic than "silk-screen print" and typically describes fine art prints rather than commercial work: The gallery featured serigraphs by Andy Warhol.
Each color requires a separate screen, making multicolor serigraphs labor-intensive.
