Mini Photography Workshop: Cyanotypes

Jul 12, 2022 2PM-5PM

CONCEPT: The Cyanotype is a 19th century process using a light sensitive emulsion, coated on paper and exposed in the sun or a UV light box. This unique experience guides participants to better understand the photographic process and create a one of a kind blueprint. As an option, participants may use found objects or bring images/negatives to scan and create digital negatives for exposure. Experimentation can include toning with Wine, Coffee, Tea and other acidic solutions. 

MEDIA: Coating paper of varying sizes for exposure in the Sun or using a UV lightbox, using objects for contact printing or creating digital negatives in the studio.
