Experimental Cyanotype Printing

  • Haystack - Center for Community Programs 22 Church Street Deer Isle, ME, 04627 United States (map)

February 16, 2024
5:00—8:00 pm
In-Person

This project-based workshop will focus on capturing shadows with the cyanotype process on fabric and paper to create one of a kind prints! Dive into the realm of this photographic printmaking method through hands-on experimentation and investigation. Participants will learn the basics of cyanotype printing on coated materials using different exposure equipment throughout the seasons, as well as tips for achieving unique results with a variety of materials in our geographical location. We will record patterns and place through cyanotype by utilizing seasonally foraged plants, digitally printed 3D and laser-cut objects created in the Fab Lab, and ordinary things that hold memory or visual intrigue to print with.
