Cyanotype Workshop

Cyanotype is an early method of photography, and a form of printmaking. This process uses a photosensitive chemical, that when applied, is a light green colour. Once exposed to light, it starts to change colour and gets darker. The chemical is then washed away and you are left with a beautiful indigo blue colour. If objects are placed on the paper while the chemical is being exposed to light, one ends up with imprints or silhouettes of the objects.
