Drop-in workshop

Impressions of Moore: Monoprint with Artist in Residence Sok Song

11:15–13:15 & 14:15–16:15

Studios & Gardens, Hertfordshire

Ink-on-paper print of a sculpture by Henry Moore. The sculpture has thick black lines, with a wash of blue sky and green grass behind.

Join us for a hands-on monoprinting drop-in session with Artist in Residence Sok Song, exploring Moore’s artistic legacy through experimental printmaking.

Inspired by Moore’s drawing and print processes, you can create your own unique monoprints using water-washable inks, hand-cut stencils, and textured materials.

Sok will guide you through direct printing methods that foreground surface, pressure, and mark-making – echoing Moore’s interest in repetition, variation, and form.

Whether you’re layering abstract shapes or experimenting with your own mark-making, this playful and accessible print activity offers an engaging way to reflect on Moore’s process. At the end of the session you’ll have made a print to take home.

All materials provided. Drop in any time during the session, 11:15–13:15 and 14:15–16:15.

This event celebrates our seasonal theme of Encounters and is part of a week of Material Encounters activities taking place this August.

About the artist

Sok Song

Sok Song is a Korean-American interdisciplinary artist, currently in residence at the Henry Moore Foundation, supported by both the Foundation and the Yale Center for British Art. He is an MFA candidate in Painting/Printmaking at the Yale School of Art.

Sok’s research at the Henry Moore Foundation focuses on the relationship between sculpture, drawing, and printmaking – examining Henry Moore’s collaborations with master printers and how sculptural form is reimagined through graphic processes. Through archival study and material experimentation, he investigates how repetition, variation, and surface are translated across media in both Moore’s work and his own.

His practice combines printmaking, folding, textiles, ceramics, and performance to explore themes of migration, labour, and identity. He has been awarded fellowships and residencies from the Vermont Studio Center, the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, the Center for Contemporary Printmaking, and the Manhattan Graphics Center, and has received support from the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council Creative Engagement Grant and the Awesome Foundation.
