Explore an alternative method of photography without the use of a camera. We will be creating prints by exposing paper treated with a non-toxic solution that reacts to sunlight. As such, this is a weather-dependent workshop. In the case of poor weather, we will be doing Paper Marbling instead and postponing the Cyanotype Workshop to June 18. Please register for both dates.
Marbling is a technique of decorating paper with suspended ink or paint. Patterns are created by moving the colours around, creating one-of-a-kind pieces that can often be found on book covers or as endpapers.
This is a part of the Books as Objects series hosted by the Arts Department:
June 1 – Bookbinding Workshop
June 4 – From Antiquity to Modernity Talk
June 11 – Cyanotype/ Marbling Workshop
June 18 – Marbling/ Cyanotype Workshop
June 25 – Folded Book Workshop
