Our Riso Saga
Inkling Studio, a creative venture established in 2020 by Zhao Hong and Shin Chi in Penang, Malaysia. Here, we proudly wear the hats of a independent publisher, Risograph micro-press and illustration studio, weaving stories and adventures through our artistic journey, known affectionately as Our Riso Saga.
Indie Publisher
As independent publishers, we're driven by the desire to bring rare gems to the local literary scene. Our focus is on publishing comics and stories that are not easily found in our local landscape.
By infusing the captivating allure of Risograph printing into our illustrated tales, we aim to craft books that reflect our own reading desires. In this endeavor, we explore diverse artistic realms, collaborating with talents from various fields and backgrounds to weave narratives that are as unique as they are enchanting.
Riso Micro-press
At the heart of our studio beats the rhythm of the Riso micro-press, a vibrant alternative for local artists and students seeking the unique touch of handcrafted Riso prints. We're on a mission to share our love for Riso, inviting people to experience the distinct charm of this printing method and, hopefully, fall in love with it just as we have.
