Two Day Salt Printing Workshop – From Digital File to PrintJoin acclaimed photographer Joachim Froese for a two-day workshop exploring one of photography’s most beautiful and tactile historic processes — the salt print.First presented in 1839 by English polymath Henry Fox Talbot, salt printing was the first widely used photographic process on paper. In this immersive, hands-on workshop, participants will learn how to adapt digital files for alternative printing processes, translating modern photographs into richly textured analogue prints.The workshop covers every stage of the process: preparing custom-made contact negatives in Photoshop, hand-coating light-sensitive paper, contact printing, and processing prints through toning, washing, fixing, and finishing.Through demonstrations, guided practice, and discussion, Joachim will share his expertise in combining historical methods with modern technology — highlighting how these intersections expand creative possibilities within photographic art.Whether you’re a photographer, printmaker, or simply curious about alternative processes, this workshop offers a rare opportunity to slow down, work with your hands, and experience photography in its most elemental form.Joachim will give an artist talk on the 24th November at the TopSpace Studio and his work will be exhibited at TopSpace Studio from 25th - 1st December.
