Sagebrush to Sandstone: Cyanotype Workshop NEW DATE, SUNDAY NOVEMBER 3RD! The cyanotype is an early photographic printing process that uses sunlight and water to create images. Cyanotype images are deep, cyan-blue, and were used in the original blueprint process. In this workshop led by visual artist Megan Berner, participants will create original photograms by arranging objects on sensitized paper. Using natural and found objects to make their prints, participants will learn how to prepare their own cyanotype paper and have an opportunity to experiment with the process. Participants are welcome to bring small objects that can be used to create images. Leaves, plants, lace, ribbon, anything with an interesting shape will work well. We will also provide supplies and some objects that participants can use.
This workshop will be conducted outside. Please plan accordingly and wear weather-appropriate clothing. All participants will receive a copy of Sagebrush to Sandstone: A Humanities Guide to Outdoor Nevada.
Sagebrush to Sandstone is a series of creative gatherings and events that highlight the arts and humanities alongside Nevada nature, produced by Nevada Humanities, and supported with funding by the Charles Redd Center for Western Studies at Brigham Young University and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
