Transmediale Vorspiel Event #3: Sun collaborations: A workshop introducing the cyanotype process

A workshop with artist Elizabeth McTernan.

17.02.2017 3-6pm

“Sun collaborations: A workshop introducing the cyanotype process” workshop on cyanotype which is a photographic printing process producing a cyan-blue print and can be performed on a variety of papers and textiles. While the photo chemicals are painted onto the print surface in a dark room, the print itself is made outside, under direct sunlight. The process uses two chemicals: ammonium iron (III) citrate and potassium ferricyanide, which are both safe to handle and easy to obtain.

Elizabeth has performed artistic research, over land and sea, in North America, Europe, Russia, Central & Southeast Asia, and India, processing it via actions, drawing, video/audio installation, storytelling, and printmaking. Recent residencies include the RaumArs Artist-in-Residence-Programme in Finland (spring 2016), Hilsbach Kunst Kultur artist residency in Bavaria (fall 2016), and Nida Art Colony in Lithuania (spring 2015). She received the 2014 Leitrim County Council Residency Award (Ireland), the 2013 Danish International Visiting Artist grant, and the 2012 Wassaic Project Education Fellowship (NY).
