What is Art Intervention?
Art Intervention is art which is intended to interact with an existing situation, structure, artwork, audience, or institution. Interventions became popular in the 1960s, as artists sought to effect change in political and social contexts. Artist-in-residence programs were inspired by this art movement.

Ink is a colored liquid or paste used writing, drawing, painting and printing. It is also the term used to describe the process of marking, covering, staining, drawing or tracing over pencil using ink. Ink is applied using various tools, such as pens, and brushes.
Mosaic is the process of creating images using many different pieces of colored tile or glass. It can take hundreds placed closely together to build an entire work. The pieces are organized like puzzles, with each piece being part of the whole picture.
Mezzotint is a printmaking technique where a copper or steel plate is roughened to print solid black. The artist then smooths specific areas of the plate to create varying tones, from deep blacks to delicate grays and whites. By controlling the degree of smoothing, the artist can achieve detailed gradations of light and shadow. This method results in prints with rich, velvety textures and subtle transitions between light and dark areas.
