Have you ever wondered how some artworks are printed in such bright and vibrant colours? Risograph printing is a semi-analogue printing technique, which produces prints with a unique textured effect. In this beginner’s workshop conducted by Knuckles & Notch, learn to create your very own photowork in Risograph using your smartphone and simple tools on Adobe Photoshop, and produce photoworks that are your own unique representation of life during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Prior to the workshop, participants will need to prepare personal objects (recommended size of within 148 x 210mm, no glass or anything that is fragile in case it gets damaged during the process of the shoot) to be included in their photoworks. More instructions will be sent to you upon successful registration.

This programme is suitable for children aged 12 and above. Registration link will be made available on 28 May. Please visit National Museum’s website for more details. Please note that no refunds will be issued for no-shows, and no recording will be provided after the session.

This programme is presented in conjunction with NMS’ special exhibition, Picturing the Pandemic at the basement level.
