Smex will be hosting a drawing and risograph workshop based on his cookbook and exhibition ‘It’ll Be Ready When It’s Ready’. In his own work, Smex draws quickly, intuitively and every single day, mainly with his ongoing ‘Drawing a Day Project’ where he has created one drawing daily since July 2018. In this 2 hour long workshop, you’ll be taken through several quick drawing exercises, inspired by words and phrases found in recipes, to create some fast paced food-based drawings. Once the drawings are complete, you'll learn about the magic of risograph printing. Risograph printing, or riso printing, is a bold, eco-friendly print process from Japan that combines the look of screen printing with the speed of photocopying. Using soy-based inks and stencils, colours are layered one at a time, often creating playful misalignments and vibrant overlaps — giving each print a unique, handmade feel. Perfect for zines, posters, and experimental art, riso is fast, fun, and full of surprises! Together, we’ll riso print a collective zine of everyone's work right there on the spot, and you'll get to take home your own copy as a fresh-off-the-press keepsake. No experience needed — just bring your curiosity! All materials will be provided, and creativity is encouraged to run wild. Tickets are available on a sliding scale… come along and cook up some art! About the Exhibition and Cookbook: ‘It’ll Be Ready When It’s Ready’ is Smex’s new exhibition, inspired by his debut riso-printed cookbook of the same name — a playful collection of 75 recipes and 55 hand-drawn illustrations. The show expands on the book’s themes, exploring food culture, home cooking, and daily rituals through drawing, painting, print, and installation. Both the exhibition and cookbook reflect Smex’s fascination with the humour and repetition of everyday life, capturing the art of cooking in all its messy, mundane, and joyful moments.

Yonge Street

M25***40

This street is very attractive to me. It is indeed a tourist destination, with many restaurants and bars, as well as many cafes and shopping stores. The street is usually crowded. One of the biggest tourist attractions on this street is a large indoor shopping mall, the Eaton Centre. The street seems to be a center of attraction and activity in itself.
