Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this risograph class:

This workshop is perfect for those looking to experiment with printing on the Riso and explore the creative possibilities of layering and texture.

Over two days, participants will learn how to safely operate the Riso, including how to switch drums, refill masters, and create images directly on the scanner. No computers or digital files are used for this technique, allowing students to focus on learning the ins and outs of the machine. Embracing the machine's imperfections, attendees will work with flat materials—such as analog photos, prints, fabrics, and papers—to design distinctive, layered compositions for their zines.

By the end of the workshop, participants will have a small edition of 5-10 zines, along with a deeper understanding of the Riso process.

No prior printing experience is necessary.

Tuition includes an $80 materials fee.
