In this workshop with Molly Macleod, you will explore the process of Cyanotype or ‘sun photography’ techniques using seaweed as the subject. Inspired by botanist and artist Anna Atkins who pioneered the use of the technique for botanical specimens, particularly as a way to archive British seaweeds.
Seaweed lends itself to this technique due to it’s delicacy, intricate shapes and translucent nature. Participants will learn the history of Cyanotypes and their importance with regards to the development of in-camera photography. We will explore wet and dry Cyanotype techniques and experiment with adding different chemicals and materials to alter the finished appearance of the Cyanotype.
During this 2.5hr workshop we will forage for specimens at Caerfai Beach, then heading back to The Really Wild Emporium to learn a variety of Cyanotype techniques.
For more information and booking please visit our website. This workshop is not suitable for children under the age of 12.
