Knuckles & Notch

Knuckles & Notch is a Risograph printing and publishing studio. We provide riso-printing service and

We run on the desire to provide artists - and anyone exploring publication options- with a choice beyond the prevailing, conventional printing processes. This alternative centers on Risograph, a relatively inexpensive technique that employs stencil duplication to yield prints in either standard or fluorescent colours. Risograph has been around for decades, but it looks set to win over legions of d

ZONSHANG X KNUCKLES & NOTCH

Birthed from marginalised communities in The Bronx, hip-hop has always served as a powerful form of artistic expression and source of power that has grown into a global movement over 4 decades. Life is full of s**t, injustice, and struggles, and through hip-hop, artists have found a way to transform difficult and taboo topics into poetry and music, offering a voice to those without. This collection of ultra cool and ultra magnetic cards are a way of celebrating and commemorating these legends of the scene. 💪🏅🕴️💯🌏

Screen-printed by hand in Japan by our dear friends (Nagashima & Honda), these rap cards are inspired by the commonplace magnetic advertisements seen throughout the city. But far from ordinary, these cards feature fifteen (15! count ‘em!) different icons from coast to coast, and past and present, superimposed over regular Japanese advertisements. 🃏🎶✨

As Aaliyah once sang, “if at first you don’t succeed, then dust yourself off and try again”, which is what you should do if you don’t get the musician you want from our gachapon! 😎🎰

ブロンクスの限界化されたコミュニティから生まれたヒップホップは、常にパワフルな形で芸術的表現とパワーの源として機能してきました。人生にはくだらないこと、不公正、苦難に満ちており、ヒップホップを通して、アーティストは難しくてタブーな話題を詩や音楽に変える方法を見つけ、そうでない人たちに声を提供しています。この超クールで超磁石カードのコレクションは、このシーンの伝説たちを祝い、記念する方法です。💪🏅🕴️💯🌏

大切な友人 (ナガシマ&ホンダ)
が手作りでスクリーンプリントしたラップカードは、街中でよく見かける磁石広告からインスパイアされたものです。しかし、普通とはかけ離れて、これらのカードは 15(15!数える!)沿岸から沿岸までの異なるアイコン、そして過去ま、日本の通常の広告よりも超絶されま、日本の通常の広告よりも超絶されています。🃏🎶✨

Aaliyahがかって歌っていたように、「もし最初は成功しなかったら、身を粉にしてもう一度やってみよう」と、ガチャポンから望むミュージシャンが手に入らなかったらやるべきことです!😎🎰

(Japanese translation by Zon Shang)

If you thought you’ve seen everything at , you’ve been SO wrong. 😈😏 Opening this Friday, 30th August, we are BUZZING to present to you: Lit My Fire! - Where the Forest Trails Glow. ❤️‍🔥👁🍃

A collaboration between flora and fauna, with ink, paper and soundwaves, plants are given an outlet to express themselves through electro signals. And by using these soundwaves, we are able to generate unique patterns. And through a combination of wheatpaste, risograph and silkscreen methods, we transform our exhibition space into an otherworldly untamed landscape. 🧏🐾🌾🪲🌛

Hear the symphony of the forest under blacklight, feel the hundreds of eerie glowing eyes peer at you from under the canopy, and let the thousands of tree roots writhe and compose abstract melodies! 💃🎵😌🍄✨️

There are also individual unique glassware pieces designed and created by May available for purchase if you’re interested in collecting & owning her works!! 🪵🪑🏠🌞

Masutani May is a Singaporean artist living in Toyama, Japan. A graduate of the Toyama Institute of Glass Art, she captures the ephemeral nature of human interactions and the subconscious. May explores the idea of silent, unspoken communication between individuals and the natural world, suggesting that people possess an imperceptible aura that functions as a shared, intuitive language. 🤲🫀🫁🌞🌊

シンガポール生まれ、富山県在住ガラス作家 Masutani May(マスタニ メイ)。

私の表現は、人間性、潜在意識の狭間にあるものに焦点を当てている。

人間も、自然も、世界にあるものを全て、絶えず変化し続ける。変化し続けても、結局は全て繋がっている。言葉では表現できない感情をガラスの透明感で繋げていく。

ガラスは無機質な元素で構成されているが、狭間に想いを繋げば有機質な存在になると私は想う。
ガラスならではの光と影、隂と陽、そしてその釣り合いを大切に造形している。

忘れてしまった泡沫の記憶を思い出すかのように、その予兆が訪れる事を願う。

PS: Due to work obligations, May won’t be present at the exhibition opening. However, her works have traveled farther than she has. We hope you’ll join us to experience her spirit through her art firsthand.
