Course description
Join us for a one-day workshop exploring one of the oldest photographic processes, the cyanotype. This alternative process produces a characteristic blue hued photographic print. In this workshop participants will use found objects like flowers, plants, or other common items to create unique photograms using the cyanotype process. We will cover the basics of the process from mixing and applying emulsion to exposure and development. Participants are encouraged to bring their own objects with them on the day. Advice will be provided on suitable objects.
Requirements
Photo Center Orientation is not required for this class, but it is required if student wishes to come to the Photo Center outside the workshop to develop film on their own and/or print their own photos in the Darkroom.
