• Elephant – http://www.elephant77.com/
• Wang Meng – http://blog.sina.com.cn/dorasmeng
• Ca Zhuxi – http://blog.sina.com.cn/cbd
Each artist has created a library of Volcom inspired imagery to be used as screen prints during the workshop. Also, the Volcom Art Department in Costa Mesa, California will be reviewing these designs and choosing one from each artist to be printed on limited edition t-shirts.
每位艺术家都创作了一系列以Volcom为灵感来源的作品并将在工作坊现场以手工丝印的方式展现。同时, 来自加利福尼亚州柯斯塔麦萨市的Volcom艺术部将选择其中的一款作为Volcom限量T恤的设计。
NeochaEDGE (http://edge.neocha.com) co-founder Sean Leow explains “among a youth generation that is increasingly connected by digital means, screen printing is a cool, low-tech way for kids to meet up, roll up their sleeves, get inspired and interact with artists to create a unique piece of artwork.” The Volcom Screen Printing Workshop will be open to the public, where guests can talk with the five attending artists, learn the basics of screen printing, and choose a Volcom design to screen print themselves.
新茶锋潮的合作创始人Sean Leow说:“对以网络为联络基础的年轻人来说, 丝网印刷是个低科技又超酷的方式可以让他们聚在一起、卷起袖子、通过艺术家交流来获得灵感，还能参与制作属于自己独一无二的艺术品”Volcom工作坊将对大众开放，人们可以和艺术家直接交谈来学习丝网印刷的基础知识，并且选择一款设计自己动手印刷。
The vibe of the Volcom Screen Printing Workshop will be "backyard barbeque." For those missing that backyard feeling and for those who like the smell of a traditional bbq, this will be THE summer event. Source will be bringing the backyard indoors, with live acoustic music, bbq area, beers on tap and grass under foot. In the midst of an urban backyard environment, screen printers will be set up in the middle getting messy. To all guests, be prepared for some painting fun!
这次Volcom工作坊将以“后院烧烤”为主题，怀念自家院子和传统烧烤的味道吗？这就是专为你准备的夏日活动！Source将会创造一个室内的院子，同时还有现场音乐、烧烤区域、现成的啤酒和脚下的草坪。而所有的丝网印艺术家将在这个都市后院的中心设起工作台并上演一起混乱的现场艺术秀。你准备好一起来玩了吗?
Leading up to the workshop, Volcom will be looking for a sixth artist to take part in the event. Through the NeochaEDGE online platform, artists nationwide can submit Volcom art samples to participate in the online campaign.
