Dive into analogue photography by exploring one of the oldest photographic processes, the Cyanotype. During this workshop students will produce hand-made photographic prints rendered in beautiful shades of blue that characterize this historic process. The workshop will walk students through the entire cyanotype process, digitally printing negatives from image files, hand-coating paper with cyanotype chemistry, and exposing that paper to light. Students will also learn the studio workflow necessary to produce these prints on their own and develop ideas to adapt this process to a classroom setting.
