The works in Make-ready; made-good continue Deborah Beaumont's investigation into the concept of print as continuum: an exploration of repetitions, reversals and series. They extend an exploration of appropriated and re-produced newspaper print waste.

Beaumont's work has its origin in print waste known as spoils: the accidental and incidental prints created during the cleaning of the press after a newspaper print-run. For over a decade she has sourced these spoils as well as newsprint detritus and artefacts from her local newspaper as well as photographing the site. This visual information has been used in combination with some of the materials and technologies of newspaper production to create a series of prints. Significantly, after more than 150 years, 2 October 2015 saw the end of the newspaper printing industry in Toowoomba. The Make-ready; made-good artworks mark another chapter in this print history.
