Developed in the 19th century by Sir John Herschel, the anthotype process captures images using the photosentive qualities of plants. In this hands-on workshop, students will be introduced to several romantic and delightful processes for creating photographic images using plant material. Appropriate transparencies will be generated, followed by creating emulsions for anthotype printing. Participants will then learn how to make their own plant- based developers, which they will use in combination with the lumen process as well as camera-less images on film called phytograms. Using produce from the grocery store or bodega, weeds plucked from the sidewalks, or luscious blooms brought in from your garden, this workshop is an opportunity to engage with the natural world within the city and make images using the sun.
Tuition includes a $50 materials fee.
