About this Event
Join us for a exploration into the art of chemical photography at the Western Plains Cultural Centre. Learn how to make a chemigram print with photographer Simone Darcy. Chemigrams are abstract cameraless prints, made by drawing and painting with chemicals on photo-sensitive paper. This process can be done in the light. Participants will be shown several techniques using a range of resists and various application methods to create unique images.
This workshop is perfect for both beginners and enthusiasts looking to explore unconventional photographic techniques. Participants will be able to take home the works they make on the day.
All chemicals, paper and equipment are included. Refreshment will be provided.
Simone will be an artist-in-residence at the Squatters Cottage in Portland during this time
