Instant (almost!) cyanotype photography
Come along and join Art Exchange in creating instant (almost!) photographs of plants and flowers foraged in Wivenhoe Park.
Come along and join Art Exchange in creating instant (almost!) photographs of plants and flowers foraged in Wivenhoe Park.
The park rangers have told us what we can pick as we explore the park foraging for things to include in our photograph - and they've even provided some trimmings for us.
Photographer Jack Briggs-Miller is onsite to guide us through the cyanotype process and show us how. Watch as light creates your artwork before your very eyes.
All materials provided and you will be able to take your cyanotype photographs away with you at the end of the day.
Beginners welcome. Admission Free – there's no need to book, just drop by.
Arrive at Art Exchange and our team will show you where to find us in the park.
