- Sunday, August 10th, from 1PM to 4PM ET

About the Workshop:
In this workshop, you will master the cyanotype printing technique while exploring its connections to time, light, and presence. Through hands-on exercises—coating paper, imprinting with your body, objects, and images, and experimenting with natural light—you’ll create unique, cameraless images that capture reality and deepen your understanding of the process.
We will engage with a range of texts, materials and artworks, from reflections on photography and scientific studies on light’s effect on circadian rhythms to treaties on societal tiredness and yoga manuals. These readings will enrich your experience, guiding you to use your entire body to experiment with and reflect on cyanotype as a metaphor.
Required Materials
- One of the sessions will take place in a nearby park, so students are encouraged to bring yoga mats or blankets to lay on the ground. The list of readings is a compilation of excerpts from various books, videos, manuals, and artworks. A shared drive folder will be provided to students before the workshop, with additional materials distributed during the classes.
- Students are encouraged to bring objects and images to incorporate into their compositions. They will also be encouraged to experiment with household items for toning their cyanotypes, such as coffee.
All other materials will be provided by the Center for Book Arts at no additional cost.
