Cyanotypes with Plants and Flowers from the Farm

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.

All materials are provided. Participants must be 16 and older. This workshop is open to beginners and experienced makers alike, with curiosity as the only requirement.

We encourage carpooling, as parking is limited.
