New Cyanotype is a photographic process invented by chemist and photographer Mike Ware in 1995 as an improvement on Sir John Herschel’s 1842 formula. It produces a consistent Prussian Blue with faster exposure times than the traditional cyanotype. In this workshop, students will learn how to make digital negatives for New Cyanotype printing including how to mix the chemistry and how to coat and expose (under UV light) the New Cyanotype on several papers.
This Visiting Artist Workshop is subsidized by the Harold Hope Memorial Fund.
– Emily J. Gómez’s work examines the American landscape and its history—investigating places where American Indian towns in the Southeast and the Midwest once prospered, and what they have become. Join Gómez Thursday 6/13 at 6pm for an Artful Evening lecture where she will discuss the progression of her large format photographic work, focusing on her series in New Cyanotype.
