Cyanotypes: Printing with Light


Discover the wonderful images you can make by using the world’s oldest form of photography


More details

Cyanotypes are hand-made, one of a kind prints made using photo-sensitive chemicals and the light of the sun or a UV lamp. In this workshop, students will learn how to make unique cyan-hued prints using found objects, plants, and photographs. We will examine how cyanotypes can mix with other media such as printmaking, drawing and collage, as well as its use as a photo-printing technique. The process of making cyanotypes can be unpredictable and can yield surprising results; as such the workshop will embrace play and experimentation as a part of the process of making. Discussions will include the historical uses of cyanotype as well as contemporary applications. Suitable for all levels. See supply list SATURDAY & SUNDAY, MARCH 6 & MARCH 7, 10AM - 1PM(PCT) IN-PERSON
