Glasgow-based design studio Risotto is celebrating a major milestone for its Riso Club subscription service with a retrospective exhibition at the Glue Factory. Since 2017, the club has commissioned and mailed four artist postcards monthly to subscribers worldwide, reaching a total of 400 unique works. The exhibition, running from April 11 to 19, marks the 100th mailing and showcases the full collection of prints together for the first time.
This project highlights a growing cultural shift toward analog media and "slow" consumption as an antidote to digital fatigue and algorithmic curation. By utilizing risograph printing—a technique prized for its tactile quality and vibrant colors—founder Gabriella Marcella has created a sustainable model for global artistic exchange. The initiative not only provides a platform for international artists from Bogota to Damascus but also encourages tangible, physical engagement with contemporary art in a domestic setting.
