Risograph printing is often described as digital screen printing. Think screen printing but with the convenience of a photocopier.
About this Event

Riso has a reputation as a DIY publishing process with vivid colours and stunning imperfections. A cheap method to produce zines, posters and short-run art prints.

In this workshop you will work with Associate Artist Heidi Sharp to use old-school cut-and-paste methods to design, produce and ‘copy’ your very own limited edition art print.

Perfect as a 101 introduction to the principals of Riso or for those simply wanting to give the craft a go for the first time.
About the Associate Artist Leading the Session:
Heidi studied Fine Art and is inspired by the Pop Art movement and enjoys exploring the themes of social media and consumerism when working more conceptually. Printmaking allows her to tap into these themes given its trait of being able to print such large quantities at a fast pace, reflecting the mass-produced element of both areas.
