Explore the camera-less photographic technique of lumen printing! Characterized by their vibrant and often ethereal colors, lumen prints are created by placing various objects (often plant life or flat shapes) on silver gelatin paper and exposing it to direct sunlight. In this hands-on workshop, artist Sara VanDerBeek will guide participants through the process of creating and exposing their own unique lumen prints, sharing insight as to how the manipulation of object placement and exposure times can be used to affect the outcome of the print. After exposure, the prints can be mounted on paper to form a photographic collage or kept as individual compositions.  

All necessary materials will be provided, AND participants are encouraged to bring any flattened plant-life, textiles, or other objects that they would like to incorporate into their work.

No prior photography experience is required to attend, and the resulting works can be taken home following the workshop, along with the skills and understanding of how to continue working in this format.
