About the event
Painting with Sunlight: Use the sun as your creative partner.
In this workshop, we will gather plants and flowers from around the farm and arrange them on light-sensitive paper. Exposed to the sun, these compositions will slowly transform into deep blue prints — revealing delicate silhouettes and unexpected details.
Cyanotype is one of the earliest photographic processes, both simple and magical. It invites a balance of intention and surprise, where each print holds traces of the plants, the light, and the moment in which it was made.
We will explore composition, layering, and the unique character of different plants. Each participant will create a small series of prints inspired by the season and the surrounding landscape.
Papers are prepared in advance using a traditional two-part cyanotype solution.
No experience needed — just curiosity and a willingness to experiment.
