today's the day of the fair. we are now all done and ready to display our zines and self publications.  thinking about my work, maybe I could have explored more kinds of techniques to idealize my zine, I could have tried extracting a favourite drawing and it into a silk screen, I could have printed some drawings and made some paper litho, I could have tried to animate those drawings and created an animation. I could have explored many different pathways but maybe I didn’t have time to think about any other since i was so nervous about getting this one done. I didn’t have much research for this project because it focuses on my own previous works, no concept, no other artists, so if evaluating if I did research on my own old drawings, then yes, it took me more than 3 days to select which ones i was going to use. I still havent decided about the price. what should I do????!???? I still don’t know how to handle this situation, I want to “repay” all the money I’ve spent but I don’t want to charge people for my work, for gods sake!!!!! this is so hard. I know as a fact I’ll have lots of troube with pricing and money in the future, I have no idea how to charge for my art (not only cost of production). I overall liked the final outcome, i liked the sewing, it was well done (🙈🙈), i like the paper I choose, although i wish it was with that fibre paper i had said previously during this week, but i guess the one I chose also fits my work, it shows texture of the paper and it fits the fact that my work has pictures of papers, so it seems like the texture is from the picture (of the papers)  and not the paper itself.

1. Yes, she tested many formats to the publication, not all used, but there is evidence of her using them
2. Yes, throw the testing of the tecniques managed to find the best suited format to her work, despite the chalange of not being abble tp destroy them.
3. Yes, the inspiration to her work is very clear, and she shows that in the final result
4. Yes, good choice of material to the zine
5. Yes, mixing the her new work, the zine, and her old one, kids drawings, she show the ideia that she want to pass, how our mind set change from when we're children, fits the theme
6. No, the only thing she hasn't soulved is the pricing, since she has the struggle of charging for her art, because she doesn't like the act of such a thing, but she is trying to find a way that suits the theme, by thinking how a child would sell this.

we "met" alex affonso today. i really enjoy his classes, since i’m eager to learning more about photoshop/illustrator/indesign. i made this nice yet stupid gif. the rest of the day was kind of useless to me, i didn’t produce anything and nothing else got me going.

I got a job today!!! I’ll be helping an AMAZING mixed media artist called Luana Lins, who works at the same studio as our amazing tutor, Carlos, does. btw, he was the one who got me in touch with her, I was going to help her o the installation of her soon to launch exhibition, but besides helping, she asked me to join her and help her at her studio. for starters, I’ll be going there every wednesday, since we’re not having classes anymore, but I really intend on helping her whenever she wants/needs me to. she is amazing and I am really glad I am having this opportunity and I really hope i can learn A LOT with her, help her and start to find out what I really want to do as an artist/as an adult human being who so far has no idea what she wants to do with her future. :) :) :)

today was our last day to finish up our zines. the morning started bad since once I was almost finished editing everything on indesign, the computres turned off by themselfes and I wanted to jump off the window. after I calmed down, I started editing everything else again. I didn’t even have time to have lunch, I was so into the work that I couldn't even stop doing it because I felt like I would loose the "flow". once I was done with it, I sent it to copy set, which because of lady murphy, the printer was not working. they told me everything would be done by 6pm but I also had to sew every zine and cut the white borders (I had life drawing classes from 4-6:30pm). happily, they got it done by 3:30 and I ran there to pick it up. I started binding everything together but life drawing had started so I had to stop for a while. once classes ended, I was able to finish stitching it (I used the classic stitch, 3 holes) and finally got time to trim it and cut off the borders. I am done :) :) :) now I just have to make the posters for tomorrow and print out a card I want to make saying the price I will have to charge for my zine. I hate this. hate that i've spent R$95 but I, from the bottom of my heart, didn’t want to charge not a penny for it. I wish art was accessible for everyone and that it didn’t cost that much. people tell me i’m stupid if I charge them for $5, but I would have to charge it for $8,71 if I wanted to get back all the money I spent doing it. and I sure as hell don't want to charge almost $10 for a mere 2 page hand made zine. I still need to think about, but I feel really bad i’ll have to charge people for a lot of money.

I worked a lot today! the day started at 9am when I got to Operação Papel to buy the paper material I wanted for my zine. I was looking for a paper that contained fibres of vegetables/fruits in it, because the look is amazing. unfortunatelly, each fibre paper cost R$4 to R$6. I was going to need 20 copies of them. I can't afford to pay R$80-120 reais only on paper (besides scans, prints, etc) since my "revenue" will only be of at the most R$5-30 reais. I decided to go with the verge plus 120g paper. when I got to class, we had this induction about the assessment, which was clarifying yet disturbing and anxious because everyone wanted to be doing stuff on their zine. I volunteered my sketchbook to be in the middle so it could be evaluated by my peers as a mockup for my real assessment.  it was awful to see them judging my sketchbook and me not being able to "defend" myself - show them around, touch my sketchbook. I don't think they all really read my sketchbook or looked for evidence to support a few facts but I was quite satisfied with my "grade" which was good. of course, I expected and aim and wish for an excellent but... 🤷🏼‍♀. after lunch, I "skipped" class, because a. I am not interested at all about marketing plans and ideas to promote business since I had having to deal with marketing and $$$$money$$$$ b. I couldn't afford to loose 2:30hrs of work, because I really had to have everything almost ready for printing by today at the end of the day. I made the final collages and glued them; I made the cover with cut up parts of the txt I wrote on those old drawings; I ran to copy set to scan all my drawings to find out their printer wasn’t working and that all the collages I had done were on an super A3 and not a normal A3, which was like the end of the world. I had to cut all the collages into normal A3s and rearrange them where they would fit the A3 normal size. finally, their printer started working again and they managed to scan it for me. it took a long time to do so, because their scanner wasn’t scanning the right colours so we had to scan them all over again 3 times. tomorrow i’m looking forward to:
morning: create an InDesign file and place everything there. create the cover. delete all the white background from my images.
lunch time: sent them to print.
evening: binding!!
late evening: life drawing
night: finish things for tomorrow's assessment & pray to god everything goes well.

I started creating the pages today. how I wanted them to look like, these collage type of interface. I was a bit stuck on how to build them, but sol helped me clear a few concepts in my mind and then everything started to flow. I tried using this trashy look, ripped pages, checkered pages, holes, etc to keep the aesthetics I was going to with my zine so far.  I don't think I was quite creative though, I felt like I was a bit off, like my mind wasn’t there. I am having an stressful week and I know this is influencing my work, but I need to get things done. there's a thin line were things could start going south with my action plan. i’m a bit scared I wont have a. time to finish b. have enough money to pay for the prints, and paper, and scans. I don't want to charge for my zine, and if I would, i’d tell the person to pay as much as they wanted or maybe $1 or $2 reais. I will be spending more or less R$70 for the whole project.

I was really excited about SP arte, because last year was really nice and I was looking forward to the fair for a long time. last monday, at dado we watched the seminar about the art market and how sad it is to see art being $old this way, so I already started to wonder if I really should go to the fair and give them (more) money. I decided to go, I guess it was an egocentric decision, but I was looking forward to see some artists there, like Ai Weiwei’s works, for instance. I was really disappointed. the fair smelled money and I felt like people were only there for status and for pictures; galleries were there for money and artists were there as a job. i hated it. I was sad to see this happening and I didn’t even enjoy seeing other nice stuff :( I need to understand a fair is for commercial matter, its not an exhibit, its not a collective, a museum. its for pure commercial interest. its still very sad for me though :(

I was up to date with my action plan but still, things weren’t quite clear for me how I was going to end up building my narrative. I went to the lab to edit all the scanned drawings and I added them all together into a few documents to print. this took me a long while because I didn’t want to waste paper so I tried to fit everything into the same pages and it took a very long time to organize all the drawings. clean their surroundings on Photoshop, and them add them into a few pages. I had everything printed out ready for me to start collaging the next day.

i decided which topic i was going to go with for my zine project. i asked roger to meet me in our class so he could help me develop my idea, which was somehow similar to a project he had made "i don't want to grow up" a few years ago. with all my old drawings & notes displayed on the table, i had to "curate" them, decide which ones i would be using, and which ones were useless. during this process, i realized several things that could help me build a narrative: a. i found many different kinds of butterflies drawn b. i write too many 'i love you's to my family c. evolution of the drawings, like humans, cars, flowers, landscapes, etc. after taking some time to think and talking with ana, i decided to start working with the fact that i had many words written down that could build a narrative that would indirectly, tell the exact reason why i love kids and miss being a kid: innocence. so my zine will start. transiting from i love you-happy-you/what if/no-miss/saudades-sad. pages will mix the text and the old drawings. no interventions at all will be made. just the assembly of those drawings & text will be the final project. still wondering about the name... 00's, life&death, time, i grew up, growing up, evolution of species. nothing yet.🤔🤔

the day was very intense. everything started by me arguing with leopoldo and sol regarding the ridiculous amount of paper we were to use today in class. what could have been resolved in ONE SINGLE SHEET OF PAPER, we used 15 a4s each, which meant by the end of the session we had all thrown away 600 SHEETS OF PAPER instead of merely 40. this extremely bothers me to see people don't giving a s* about OUR planet and our natural resources, as if it was the most trivial thing in the world. people say they care about the earth, but if they do this and say they care, they're nothing but hypocrites. i look forward to further develop this idea and make posters to hang in the class about the waste of natural resources and the negligence to help saving the environment, making me look like the bad girl, the one who's bothering class, who's just mean - when actually i’m just doing EVERYONE else's jobs, since they are not.
besides all of this, we had this session where we had to have 30 ideas in 30 minutes. it was over the edge but i think i really like my ideas at the end. i'll make sure to keep them safe because maybe i can all use them (at least few of them) on the future. now i’m more confused than ever regarding my zine project, i don't know which path to take, which idea to further develop. my mind is going spiral after this session.

old pictures + sewing or different kinds of interventions

scan leafs and give fake info on them. ex: where they came from, how old they are, where/how i found them.

today we went to dado, an international seminar program where we watched two really interesting presentations. one with vanessa carlos, founder of carlos/ishikawa, an art gallery based in london & creator of condo, a new way to experience art;  and stefan benchoam, an artist from guatemala who also participates at condo. the next seminar we watched was with livia benedetti who created aarea and vivian gandelsman who created artload and cofounded dado. extremelly interesting day.

Today was a research day. I planned my day to do the following:

_ Espaço Cultural Porto Seguro

_ Sesc Bom Retiro
_ Pinacoteca
_ Estação Pinacoteca
_ Memorial da Resistência
_ Sesc 24 de Maio
_ Farol Santander
_ CCBB: Basquiat
Unfortunately, we let out Sesc 24 de Maio and CCBB because we didn’t have enough time. For me, it's very important to be up to date with exhibitions around town, always expanding my repertoire, but I didn’t really connect to any exhibition i've seen today. See, for me, art smells. People have different tastes on smells, and once you like a smell, it really touches and you'll keep looking for this smell over and over during your life. None of the exhibitions I've been today had a smell for me, but of course, it's really important to go see them, take notes and pictures for further research that maybe one day will suit me. So there's not much to add on that matter, since they weren’t quite interesting for me.

I've tried many different things with my drawing diary. I am still transitioning from collages to drawings, still mixing both and I'm having a hard time leaving it behind. I really like mixing both, somehow and it's not easy to detach from a technique I so much enjoy. Besides it, I've tried sewing, burning (influence from last weeks' project Believing is Seeing, which inspired me to keep sewing and burning!), I've tried acrylics, coloured pencil, oil pastel, fine point pens, etc. I'm enjoying it so far and am hopeful to experience more and more.
ps: now I'm starting to worry if i'll have enough pages till the end of the year - I guess this is a great sign.

Today was my progress tutorial with Daniel. I wasn’t nervous for the tutorial because I knew I had done everything I could so far, but was scared that maybe it wasn’t enough. I organized everything on the 3 tables, tried choosing my favourite pieces of work of each project so far displayed on the table, meanwhile the rest was pilled in another table in case he wanted to see everything regarding each project. Daniel told me liked the fact I had organized this way, so keep a note on that, to always get there a little bit earlier and display everything arranged on the table. I've been kind of disappointed so far with the feedbacks I've received during the past 4 crits. None of them were quite constructive, and I felt like I didn’t get any constructive critiques at all, not even mean critiques, and I was really expecting feedbacks that would help me grow better, reflect on my work and maybe try something different for the next times, but I never got those kind of feedbacks, they went on like "I like your references" "Nice pick on the colours" "I really liked your performance" "Very well organized" and now finally, I got some good feedback on my work. Daniel gave me a very important wake up call: he told me to stop stalling and finally get started with my drawing diary, since (insert shyness) I hadn't even started it. I've been wanting to do something and feeling guilty I hadn't even started drawing in it, and I finally got that push I needed, so as soon as I got home I started playing with my diary. Finally. It is hard for me to embrace my drawings, since I don't exactly like my way of drawing, I always go for my safe space which is collage. I deal very well with collages and composition with collages, so it will be hard to migrate for drawing.

Today was the last day for our Collection Project, we had to pretty much come with our ideas finalized, ready to install the collection. After so many experiments throughout the week, I went with my favourite one: on Mar 7, we took our collection downstairs to the ground level, where I used the information from the space itself to interact with my wood boxes in a chaotic way. I thought that wasn’t enough though, so I finalized the GIF I had been thinking about since Michael talked to me about it, and I also hung a few of my outcomes from the drypoint and the monotypes at the pilar near by. I was actually (and surprisingly) satisfied with my work and was proud of me in the matters that I experienced many different methods to represent my collection and I went with them all the way even though I wasn’t 100% happy with the final result.

I had decided to not only make a poster for my final outcome, but I also wanted to make a performance out of it. I dressed up all black and with some red lipstick, I made a cross on my mouth. I did not speak a word during my performance that lasted from 10:10 up until 12:00. People tried talking to me and I didn’t respond, people asked me questions or even made some stupid comments but I didn’t  answer them. I really liked the effect the performance had, what it meant to me. The contradiction between the sentence "fight like a girl" and me having a cross on my mouth meaning I didn’t have a voice, I wasn’t allowed to talk, they didn’t let me talk, was really interesting to me. Cause we fight with our words and our fight is to educate the world about equity between men and women, and we can only do that by talking, explaining, debating, fighting. Many women looked at me and blinked, or smiled at me -- while men looked at me, laughed and some even made a few jokes. I am more than ever sure this fight is my life's fight and I will not live not to fight it.
I didn’t like this weeks' crit, I don't think it was effective and I don't feel like I learned anything from it, I wish I had more than post its telling me they liked the colour composition, or the handmade placard, and more technical and deeper feedbacks (just like the ones I give to other people, but they don't seem to give back).

The first part of the day was way too rushed. We didn’t have time to do anything, and as I've said before, really badly planned. But, for the time we got, I managed to do a few things. First of all, I had printed three pictures as it was asked for us, chosen from the 60 images we took earlier this week. I had to pick which one to use: a. sound b. fabric c. loneliness. I went with the fabric image because I thought about an idea that could work with the fabric picture of the sheets of my bed. Monique had talked about an artist called Cris Bierrenbach, which inspired me to try something flowy, with movement and layers to transform my 2D picture into a 3D object picture. I didn’t have time to print in fabric or anything similar, so I wanted to stick with the flowy and layers idea and transparency, so I thought about printing the images into tracing paper (famoso papel vegetal) but again, I didn’t have time to go to a copy store and print them. I was about to change my mind and go for a different picture and start all over, when Monique and Daniel told me they knew I didn’t have time, but I should at least try it. So I decided to go running to the copy store @ Mourato Coelho - I called them on my way there and emailed the link to the picture and told them to print 5 copies of that; I came inside, payed and ran back to school. Once I got there, it was already 11:30 and I was worried about time. I wanted to create something like a 3D layered object where I'd cut the same pictures into the same parts and use parts of them as each layer, but not all of them at once (its easier to understand it by looking at the video I posted). I really had to rush, since I encountered several problems that happened because I was not prepared, I hadnt done any research, looked for references, not how important this is for any kind of project, even the smaller and simpler ones. I ended up running to the printing room, where Marcelo gave me an A2 sized acetate, which I cut into several A4s and turned them into the bases for my pictures. I them arranged the layers amongst the acetate bases and got this object that resembles layers and a composition with different parts of the image that together completes a whole image. I wish I had had a lot more time to figure this out, as this was an experiment and like a first tryout, I would have used thicker acetate and more layers of acetate. The printing was great, the parchment paper suits the needs. I used double sided masking tape that's not that transparent, so for a next time also I would have figured something out like a glue or something that’s more transparent than the masking tape. For the crit part, I got nice feedback on my work, but I miss having things written down, because at the moment I was too focused on presenting my work that now that I have to reflect on my feedback, I feel like I remember little of it, so this is something to get better on, either record my crits, or make notes, ask someone else close to me to make notes. I guess this will help me a lot to understand better my work. :)

Today was an amazing day. Finally, after so many shitty days of no creativity at all, I finally had the chance to express myself and blow feelings off me. We made tons of interactions and interferences into the old pictures we brought, and I had a lot of fun. I explored many different techniques, I sewed pictures, I drew on pictures, I burned them, I cut parts off them, I added elements from the outside world, like a button, or a leaf I found at the street, but by far, my favourite way of interaction was by stitching. I had a hard time getting the line inside the needle every time I need more line or a different colour, but it was my favourite technique since I achieved best results with it. I even bough a thicker red line so I could do more of those at home (spoiler: I already did many more back at home). I loved trying different options, like burning, cutting, writing on top of things, subtracting others - I think I have found a very interesting space which I really want to explore more and pursue for the course of the year and perhaps, even my career? I also think this week’s schedule was not well thought, we should’ve had a lot more time for this kind of exercise and a lot less time for exercises like filter making; talking to my friends, everyone felt the same way and we reported that to our tutors, who also totally agreed with us.

# data[].attributes.body
I got school earlier today so I could unmould it. Turns out the cement was not dry yet. I got desperate and had a crisis for about 15 minutes. I sucked it up and decided I had to grow up and do something about it. So, I decided to embrace the fact that the materials I was using had this construction, raw aesthetics and I went for it. I staged a scenography with the stairs, those cement blocks, hammers, etc to blend in with the pipe. I ended up really liking the result, even though I didn’t end up with my initial idea, I think I managed to contour the situation and make the best out of it. I think it was a great learning to me and made me more mature for sure. Tutors' feedback also said they were happy to see I didn’t let this stop me delivering my final project and that I figured out a way to solve my situation very fast :)

# data[].attributes.body
I had done my research during the weekend for this weeks' project and I already knew which topic I wanted to protest about. Of course, my one and only feminism. I made a mind map where I brainstormed many ideas into this graph to understand what was I going to protest against at the end of the day. I had an episode with Michael where he criticized the language I used to talk about this matter, where he said I was too aggressive and maybe someone who didn’t agree with me wouldn't like to read on my sketchbook. This made me really angry for many reasons but mainly because this is not his to say, he does not have an opinion on this matter, he, and by he I mean all men in the whole world, do not have a say in what kind of language women should use to fight our fight for equity. That’s literally what we are fighting against, men telling us what to do, how to say, how not to say. It made me really sad because I didn’t expect Michael to be ever 'mansplain' me.

# data[].attributes.body
Today was a totally useless day. I couldn't produce anything, I didn’t think I was creative at all, I might as well just have come home because everything I did I wanted to trash it right away. I had a few ideas and did some experimentations but none of them were nice and tidy. Sol told me to go further with the one I didn’t like the most.. at first I thought she was crazy, but then I realized that would be a challenging thing to do, since I had to develop the idea I hated the most... so that's what I did. I went for the one with the text made out of red masking tape.

# data[].attributes.body
We made some experiments mixing the posters tryouts we had done yesterday and some figures we had cut out of magazines and newspapers into some collages. I experimented a lot, but stayed at the obvious, yellow background, fight symbols (fist, mouth shouting, boxing gloves, the 'we can do it' worldwide famous icon, etc). Later on we tried some silkscreen based on those collages and I really liked the result. I just wasn’t pleased with the yellow tone I used, it was too bright, I wanted something darker, like a mustard colour. But I had to remember I had half an evening to do it, so I didn’t have time to actually sort out and experiment different types of yellows.

# data[].attributes.body
When deciding what to do for my poster I decided I wanted also to make a performance out of it. Although the episode with Michael made me sad and uncomfortable, it inspired me to go for this performance thing. Also, I finished my placard. I combined colours from my research that reminds the Guerrilla Girls poster on 'Do Women Have to Get Naked to Get into a Museum?' (red and yellow and black) with the silk screens I made yesterday. I went for a handcrafted style, used the paint roller brush to make the background, red masking tape for "fight", india ink for "like a girl" and I made two stencils for the boxing gloves icon. One for the red part, and one for the black details. I didn’t really like the result because I used gouache paint on top of the acrylic yellow paint and they don't work well together, so it didn’t really stick to the paper the pigment. Anyways, I was overloaded with this project already and I didn’t want to go crazy about it so I decided I was going to embrace it and not start all over again.

# data[].attributes.body
We started of the day by sharing with our colleagues our collection of 60 images. I was very happy about some pictures and others I didn’t like at all, so I was at the same time happy to share my results with them and also ashamed of a few pictures that were a total failure. I know I could do better and I just couldn't find a way to solve a few images in a better way and this infuriates me. Anyways, we shared our results and it was interesting seeing what others had done. It was also really nice to realize I have a kind of language that surrounds my work, end of the day, somehow most of the pictures connects to me, is it because its regarding nature, or my family, or kids, or this pastel colour palette, or how the images make me feel, how those pictures wakens some feelings in me. For instance, the loneliness image is a B&W image of a swing. It means nothing for someone else, but for me, it means all the times I went to that swing by myself feeling down to think about my life. So I really enjoyed this project. Later on, we started thinking about the filter making and I tried many different materials but they were all failures and I did not succeed with none of them. I wasn’t feeling creative at all and all the materials I felt like working with, weren't working/they looked like something in my mind but in real life they didn’t really work.

I went to Feira Plana today. A fair where local visual artists have a voice and can exhibit anything they've been producing lately :) It was AMAZING! it took my breath away many different times. I learned a new technique called risograph and I'm in love with it. Its pretty much a mixture of a photocopier and silk screen: it uses the silk screen method for when you have to print in a bigger quantity. The aesthetics of this technique is a kinda dirty, handcrafted, not perfect aesthetics, which really connects to my work and line of thinking. Besides, I met many different artists, I saw a few professors there, many people I admired, etc. I wish I had more money to spend there without even caring but I don't, so maybe next time.. I, for a change, connected to this and saw myself doing this in the future, putting my thoughts and art to the world and hoping someone will connect to it and enjoy it instead of having to be a graphic designer where I have to sell my soul to companies... I had an amazing time and I learned a lot! Can't wait for next years'.

Você ama essa estética e não sabe o nome.
Aquela impressão sujinha.
Algumas vezes fora de registro.
Com cara de serigrafia.
Com jeito de cópia.
Quase artesanal.

Conheça a Risografia.

Mas o que é Risografia?

Risografia - Risograph, em inglês ou apenas Riso, para os íntimos - é uma marca de impressoras/copiadoras criadas no Japão nos anos 80 para viabilizar impressões de baixo custo em alto volume. Foi usada incialmente para imprimir lotes de cartazes de colégios e igrejas com a técnica que é um mix entre fotocópia e serigrafia.

O pitch dos inventores era simples e direto: se você precisa de mais de 50 cópias e menos de 10 mil, é mais barato com a Riso. O preço mais em conta vinha do uso de tintas mais baratas (do que toner) aliado ao consumo reduzido de energia elétrica e da menor necessidade de manutenção das máquinas.

E cadê o glamour?

Pra começar, as Risos modernas usam tinta vegetal/mineral e são super rápidas - quase como uma offset. Elas funcionam mais ou menos assim:

A imagem a ser impressa é escaneada e transferida para um tipo de stêncil chamado de Master

O Master é enrolado num tambor cilíndrico, cheio de tinta líquida

O papel é puxado pela máquina, que molha o stêncil com a tinta e transfere a impressão pro papel

Já deu pra entender que é como na serigrafia, certo? Uma cor de cada vez - e isso precisa estar na ponta da língua na hora de preparar a arte para impressão, o pode ser bastante trabalhoso.

Cada gráfica Riso oferece uma gama de cores limitadas e você pode consegue tonalidades diferentes brincando com o percentual de cada uma - a impressora é bastante fiel - ou sobrepondo camadas de cor diferentes (eu ouvi Overlay de Photoshop?), numa experimentação deliciosa.

Como em qualquer processo de sobreposição de cores, há a chance da impressão ficar levemente fora de registro. No caso da risografia, o erro e as imperfeições são o que consideramos o grande charme da técnica.

Os feras da Riso

Tem muito artista usando e abusando da técnica, libertando a imaginação sem medo. Selecionamos alguns trabalhos nacionais pra você conferir:

Onde imprimir Riso no Brasil?

Se você estiver em Sampa, procure a meli-melo Press. Os caras são feras na impressão risograph editorial pra pequenas e médias tiragens. Imprimem, como eles dizem, o que couber num A3.

Nas terras paulistas você ainda encontra o Estúdio Pilha, com mais Riso pra quem é fã.

No Rio, Risografia tem nome e sobrenome já conhecidos por aí: Risotrip print shop co.. Lá, os especialistas vão de cursos e workshops a livros e zines. Tem até arte em Riso de nossos Studios por lá.

Você ama essa estética e não sabe o nome. Aquela impressão sujinha. Algumas vezes fora de registro. Com cara de serigrafia. Com jeito de cópia. Quase artesanal. Conheça a Risografia. Risografia - Risograph, em inglês ou apenas Riso, para os íntimos - é uma marca de impressoras/copiadoras criadas no Japão nos anos 80 para viabilizar impressões de baixo custo em alto volume.
