**This workshop is co-sponsored by Interbay Cinema Society and Northwest Film Forum. **
Cyanotype is a blue-and-white photographic process that dates back to the 1840s. In this at-a-distance introductory workshop, we will explore creating cyanotypes on both paper and 16mm clear film leader using sunlight, water, plant matter, and found objects. You’ll get a kit in the mail with all the necessary materials, and artist Kate Lain will walk you through the process of exposing and developing your cyanotypes via Zoom.
The emphasis of the workshop will be on experimentation and playing with materials, rather than on precision. The 16mm cyanotype film strips we create in the workshop will be combined into a group film that will be digitized following the workshop. The resulting file will be emailed to participants and will go online sometime later in the year.
Note that this is an introductory workshop. No prior film or cyanotype experience needed. Also note that the focus of the workshop is on exposing and developing cyanotypes rather than on coating film with cyanotype emulsion. Physical mailing address within the US (P.O. box is fine) required to participate and receive kit. More info below.
Kate Lain is an artist and educator working primarily in experimental film and video, ceramics, and cyanotypes. Her work is rooted in documentation and critical observation, and she is particularly interested in questioning USAmerican mythologies related to nature, gender, and landscape. She is based in Pasadena, CA.
NOTE: We’ll talk about all this stuff in the Zoom workshop!
Kate and Caryn will host a Zoom check-in at 5pm Pacific Time on Friday, Sept. 18, for any participants who have not used Zoom before, want to test out their setup, or for any other reasons wish to practice with the platform before the actual workshop. If you’re interested in being a part of this, please let Kate know.
Kate will be hosting an optional virtual “office hour” from 11am to noon Pacific time on Wednesday, September 23, for any participants who realized after the September 19 workshop that they had additional questions or ran into snags while trying to work through the process on their own.
Presented by Seattle’s Northwest Film Forum, the 23rd Annual Local Sightings Film Festival [Online] virtually showcases creative communities from throughout the Pacific Northwest.
