Cyanotypes

Holy thread resurrection, batman!

We totally made a cyanotype photogram at the party yesterday

Also one I made earlier:

For this, I went up to Parallax Photographic Coop in Brixton and purchased some ready-made cyanotype paper sheets, rather than applying the emulsion to the paper ourselves.

As it turns out, silverprint supply the two chemicals in smaller quantities.

We’d need a couple of bottles to keep be made up solutions in, and one to mix it in.

You can also apply the solution to other materials like wood and fabric

If there’s a corner of the screenprinting area that could house a couple of bottles, I’d happily get this get set up when I’m next able to - if there’s interest. Could even do a workshop - there’s not much to it, mind you! And a lot of time will be spent waiting for things to dry I’d suspect…
