Abstract

This study focused on the characteristics of rotary prints that can be printed in multiple colors with one plate and examined the practice of experiencing the fun and realizing the possibilities of colors among students who are not good at handling colors. The study was conducted at two schools—a junior high school and a childcare worker school, to capture different ages groups and environments. The results were compared to determine the effect. Considering the factors toward which the target students tend to have an aversion, we devised the order of ink stacking, plate manufacturing process, and overlapping colors by rotation. Consequently, students were more focused on the process of color change, for example, we observed increased motivation due to a successful printing experience, increased curiosity due to the addition of carving processes, and encouragement in color observation due to contingency overlap. It is believed that the students were able to reduce their aversion and recognize the possibilities of color expression through the production process as well as enjoyed observing colors in the rotary prints that can be printed in multiple colors.
