An Introduction to Cyanotype. A technique dating back to the 19th century, developed by the astronomer Sir John Herschel and the botanist Anna Atkinson in England. The photographic prints, with their beautiful cyan or Prussian blue hues, are unique and can be created through contact printing with objects, plants, or drawings on transparent sheets, or by printing from negatives. It is this diversity that will be explored during the workshop. The theme will be the exploration of one’s identity through the creation of a small series of works.
About the artist:
A teacher, artist, and horseback rider, Sarah Bedin-Londono does not limit herself to a single field. The same goes for her artistic practice: interested in image reproduction techniques, she works with film and digital photography, various types of engravings, and traditional printing processes such as cyanotype. Her primary themes are the study of nature and landscape, approached with a sensitive, even dreamlike, documentary style.
