Discover how light, shadow, and digital tools can come together in this playful cyanotype workshop. Participants will use laser-cut shapes and found objects to create one-of-a-kind blueprints on fabric and paper. After arranging materials on light-sensitive surfaces, we’ll expose them to sunlight or UV light and rinse in water to reveal the final image.
This session blends traditional photographic printing with the precision of digital fabrication—offering a chance to experiment and take home place-based prints. This process yields unique results and provides opportunities to imagine through making while collaborating with elements of nature and everyday objects.
No experience necessary; all materials provided.
Family Friendly | This workshop is open to all ages. Children are welcome to participate with the supervision of an adult—a great opportunity to make and learn together.
