Programme Synopsis This hands-on workshop will introduce you to one of the earliest ways of creating an image with light, Cyanotype, also known as ‘Sun Printing’ . The facilitator will share ways to express ideas through cyanotype printing. Participants will have hands-on experience to create their own cyanotype print, from composing using objects around them, to exposing the print and developing their images. They will also understand the theories behind the age-old alternative photographic process. The outcomes of this workshop are highly customisable. Choose between paper, fabric, drawstring bag, tote bag or even have your photos customised into photo negatives to be printed. Expect lots of fun under the sun!
