Discover Cyanotype

About this Event

Workshop facilitated by Sophia Jenny

Learn how to transform your own photographs into beautiful blue solar-powered sun prints using the historic cyanotype process.

In this hands-on workshop, you will be guided through the fundamentals of this early photographic technique, combining light, chemistry, and water to create richly detailed prints. Alongside developing practical skills, the session offers a chance to slow down and reconnect with the tactile pleasure of print making – leaving you with finished artworks and a renewed sense of creative possibility.
