RISO Zine Workshop: 寄语于花 Wishes in Bloom
寄语于花 Wishes in Bloom | Now Place Zine Vol.3
｡･ﾟﾟ･｡✨｡･ﾟﾟ･｡
In this workshop, we’ll explore an analog RISO printmaking process by scanning dried plants directly on the RISO bed 🌿📠
As we compose floral collages, we’ll learn about the characteristics of different plants and let them guide our intentions for the year ahead ✨🌸
After printing, we’ll assemble a small handmade zine with the floral artwork as its cover—
a tiny artifact holding a personal New Year wish in botanical form 💌📘
｡･ﾟﾟ･｡✿｡･ﾟﾟ･｡
在本次工作坊中，我们将把 干燥植物直接放置在 RISO 扫描台 上进行扫描与印刷 🌿
通过植物拼贴的创作，了解不同植物的形态与特质，并将这些特性转化为对新一年的寄语与期许 ✨🌱
完成 RISO 印刷后，我们将亲手装订一本 小型 zine，
以植物拼贴作为封面——让新年的愿望，以植物的方式被保存下来 🌸📖
