Event description

Cyanotype Printing

Times: 10am - 2pm
Cost: $150.00

Harness the power of the sun to create beautiful ble prints using the
historical Cyanotype process, discovered and developed by Sir John
Herschel in 1842.

Cyanotype printing is one of the oldest, simplest,
safest and economical alternative photographic processes. Traditionally
harnessing the power of the sun to easily make beautiful blue prints
from objects like leaves, flowers, feathers and other objects, etc. The
possibilities are endless. The process can also be achieved indoors
utilising a UV light box during times of low or poor sunlight.

A large selection of objects will be provided for use in the workshop, but
feel free to bring your own. Examples include plant cuttings, flowers,
jewellery, lace, small items of glassware, etc.

You will learn about the process and chemistry involved, how to coat sheets of paper with the
required chemistry, drying, arranging objects on the paper, and
exposing. Development is done in water and no darkroom is required.

Noprior skills or understanding of photography is required. It is an
easy, fun process that produces relatively quick results with work that
is finished on the day. It is very hands on.
Notes on the process and where to obtain materials and chemicals will be provided.
Please bring along snacks/lunch and drinks. Tea and coffee will be provided.
