Ruda Studio
TECHNIQUES
| Silkscreen
Ruda Studio is a working place for designers and artists in Madrid. The place is split into two parts; upstairs it is dedicated to working and co-working places and at entrance level, you can find our serigraphy workshop for artists, members, residents, and teaching purposes. Rida’s main goal is to offer a nice atmosphere and a comfortable working space for Madrid based designers.
The studio was co-founded by Tuchi and Andi Concha on November 2017
The serigraphy workshop is split into 4 rooms: First, the paper room. A clean off-ink room to prepare the substrates. The second room is dedicated to generating silkscreen, having a long table with four serigraphy spaces and a four-arm octopus. The third room is the workshop and a room to blend the different inks. This room has six working places long table. The last room contents the exposure unit. There is a patio with a basin for the screens.
