This workshop explores the simplicity and beauty of cyanotype as one of the ways we can make art sustainably and respectfully with this precious resource.
Delving into this old photographic process made with sunlight, we will play with making lasting impressions of Rimurimu, unleashing your creativity to make stunning cyanotype prints! You will have hands-on guidance from local artists Virginia Woods-Jack, Belinda Whitta and Samson Dell. You'll also have the opportunity to experiment with your own shoreline ephemera, so feel free to bring along your own beach treasures!
In addition, you will be introduced to the magical possibility of developing film with seaweed with a step-by-step demonstration. Plus, you will receive digital scans of the photographs we have made throughout the day!
Culminate your experience with the opportunity to share and discuss your cyanotypes, reflecting on the enriching learning outcomes of this unique workshop. You will leave with a collection of cyanotypes and a package of valuable resources!
Love Rimurimu is a project piloting the regeneration of seaweed forests in Te Upoko-o-te-ika-a-Māui. Imagine the waters of Wellington sustaining a healthy and vibrant ocean forest; absorbing carbon, improving water quality and providing habitat for thousands of marine creatures. Regenerating our seaweed forests is a way to make this a reality - and it’s what this project is all about.
This event suitable for adults and older/interested tamariki accompanied by their adults- please get in touch with any questions about suitability.
Cost: $50+ booking fee, bookings essential
