MARY YACOOB - ARTIST
Cyanotype Workshop Suitable for all ages
Mary is a London based artist who is interested in printmaking and maps.
She has developed a workshop for you to create Cyanotype photographs. By using special sunlight sensitive paper and layering transparent pictures and stuff you can forage from outside, you can create one-off photographic masterpieces.
Cyanotype printing is a fun way to understand the principles of photography using sunlight by exposing paper with arranged objects placed on them. In this particular workshop, Mary will ask you to use some of the pictures she has provided and collect plants and items that you can forage from local hedgerows to create the patterns on the paper. She will show you how to develop the image on the specially treated paper, creating magical sunlight photographs.
One week after completing the workshop we will have a special online group meeting, Mary can look at the work you produced and you can all participate in a group chat.
(Pictured Left, Example of Cyanotype from Previous workshop)
