Risography Archives

A risography is a print-technique from Japan using eco-friendly vegan colours (plantoil). These colours are opaque, so placing them on top of each other results in beautiful new mixed colours. Copies are printed with a risograph and thus allows cost-effective editions. Also, due to the technique layers can be slightly misplaced which just adds to the uniqueness of each print.

Prices include tax and works are shipped worldwide.

Growth or wealth – Risography

€40,00 inc. VAT
Recently, we installed a new artwork, visualizing the UN's SDG-8 "Sustainable growth and decent work". The motive was developed as a commissioned work for Hamburg's NGO Global Goals. More about this project can be found here and an in-depth analysis in this podcast (German).

Short summary: "When thinking about economic growth, one buzzword comes into mind, which is used as an excuse/explanation for any economical decision “wealth”. According to (Western) politicians, wealth only can be guaranteed by eternal economic growth. However, we argue that wealth incorporates all those achievements, that are sacrificed in the name of economic growth: safe working conditions, environmental protection, education, affordable living, health, happiness, democracy, etc,

Thus, we created an artwork disagreeing with SDG8 and the praise of GDP in general. This work is multilayered, touching subjects as circular economy, religion (neo-Catholicism), crypto, climate crisis etc. However, the central aspect remains, chasing the GDP sacrifices our wealth."

"Same shit" Risographie. Der Beste Weg die Protestaktion und uns als Künstler*innen finanziell zu unterstützen ist Kunst zu kaufen, z.B. diese wunderschöne Risographie. Risographwas? Eine Risographie vereint alles, was die Rechten hassen, es ist eine Technologie aus dem Ausland (Japan), gedruckt wird mit umweltfreundlichen veganene Farben (auf Pflanzenölbasis). Die Farben sind auch nicht deckend, sondern lasieren, d.h. durch das Überlagern gibt es wunderbare Mischtöne. Passgenauigkeit gibt es auch nicht, die Lagen können versetzt sein, hier und da blitzt dann mal die Farbe durch, dadurch wird jeder Druck zum Unikat. Dies eine signierte aber offene Edition. Mehr von Wunderland findet ihr hier und von LAPIZ hier.
