Risograph is a stencil duplicator from Japan that was initially used for offices and churches and repurposed by artists & art communities due to its vibrant colors, unique translation of art, and fun process. We often describe this process as Screen Printing meets Copy Machine. We burn art into a stencil (referred to as a “master”) that is transferred onto ink drums (with dedicated colors), which then rotates as paper passes under it, transferring ink onto the paper. Each layer of color requires a “pass” through the machine on a different drum (as well as alignment and drying between layers). RISO is great for edition printing, relatively sustainable, and looks great!
