Programme Synopsis This workshop aims to expand students' knowledge of what a zine is and explore its purpose, different ways of making and its communicative possibilities. Using simple paper folding techniques, collaging and low-tech printing processes, students formulate their own ways to produce a zine. On an interpersonal level, the act of creating a zine is also an act of “remembering”. What is something important that we often forget? What are the ways that we can create reminders of them. In this workshop, students will be prompted with this question in zine-making to establish personal and intimate expressions with this humble craft. Co:Created with visual art educator and practitioner Nur Hanis Binte Selamat, this workshop will cultivate a sense of creative resourcefulness and risk taking in students as they explore deeper into experimental ways of printmaking.
