Let's revisit Singapore's history through printmaking! Step back in time into 1950s Singapore through the woodblock prints by artists such as Cheong Soo Pieng, Chuah Thean Teng, Tan Tee Chie, Choo Keng Kwang and Koeh Sia Yong. In this workshop, participants will get to learn more about woodblock prints produced in 1950s Singapore and create their very own unique linocut prints guided by Artist-led mobile print studio SuperSegak!
