The Cyanotype process was developed in 1842 by the scientist John Herschel & one of the first people to use the cyanotype process was Anna Atkins. photographically illustrating her book British Algae:ÿin Cyanotype impressions 1843 with Cyanotypes. Step by step guidance will be given on mixing the chemicals & coating techniques firstly on to watercolour paper & then on to fabric. Once the coated paper & fabric are completely dry they can then be exposed to a UV light source either sunlight or by using a UV lightbox to produce a chemical reaction which is fixed & washed in running water. Use objects to make cyanotype photograms or produce digital negatives to create ?original? prints on paper as well as design your own chair & cushion covers!This course would be suitable for anyone as no previous darkroom experience is required. You will be encouraged to experiment first using objects to create cyanotype photograms. where objects can be placed directly on top of coated cyanotype paper. Digital imagery can also be used & instruction will be given on how to make digital negatives which could be used to contact print onto paper & fabric which has been coated with cyanotype chemicals.
