The Playful Ways of Printmaking
版畫原來都可以咁挽!

2 – 3 December 2023

The workshop uses screen printing to create playful images in printmaking. Monoprint is chosen as a means to alter the public perception that printmaking is only about mass production — actually, it has enabled art to become more affordable and accessible.

The participants can use a medium screen to paint and print their monoprint, exploring the concept of “self-portrait”. What is our inner identity and impression we want to present to society? What makes us unique?

Before the lesson, each participant needs to prepare three keywords for themselves. By teaching them the basics of monoprint, attendees can play with free-flowing brushstrokes, colours, and composition combined with their creativity to enjoy the monoprint process. After printing with the squeegee on their chosen paper, they can bring home a 20 × 23 cm artwork that records their inner thoughts manifested through art.

Everyone should enjoy the playfulness of art printmaking!

是次工作坊介紹版畫(絲網印刷)的玩味,打破大眾對絲網印刷或版畫的既定印象:絲網印刷不只是重複圖案,更是讓大眾更容易接觸藝術的途徑。

參加者會用一個中型尺寸絲網去繪畫及印刷,圖像題材是「自畫像」。我們印象中,最內心的自己是怎樣?想呈現的一面是?獨特的地方是?

參加者在工作坊前預先準備3個有關於自己的關鍵字,於工作坊當天,他們會根據關鍵字去繪畫自畫像的版畫。教導獨幅絲網印刷基本技巧後,他們可在筆觸、顏色、畫面、構圖中自由發揮。最後印製成品後,會獲得一幅20 × 23厘米,關於「自己」的獨幅絲網版畫。

每個人也可體驗到版畫的趣味!
