The experience of attending art exhibitions is exhilarating in itself, exposure to unique installations and multimedia pieces looks mythical to the naked eye. We take a journey through the gallery immersed in the different types of art forms wanting to get a piece of the creative experience ourselves.
Studios around the world, specifically in California and London have always curated such experiences for people outside the art industry. These workshops are easy to follow and have become an attractive activity for the weekends. Led by seasoned artists, these explorations allow us to discover the hidden artists within each one of us.
While these studios expand on multiple different printing techniques, the most interactive experience is offered through the screen printing workshops. Also known as Serigraphy, an old-school method of making positives, exposing and printing. The popular print is achieved by pressing ink through a stencilled mesh screen and it’s likely that you’ve worn a screen-printed t-shirt at some point without even realising.
Taking the lead, studios in Delhi and Bombay are now introducing similar workshops available to everyone. These art-based spaces explore different mediums of design and curate experiences based on knowledge as well as innovation. So if you’re looking for something to do this weekend do check out the following studios for information on their upcoming workshops.
