Alternative Photo Processes (Ages 15+ / Adults)
Explore camera-less photography through experimental image-making.
This course introduces participants to a range of alternative photographic processes, including the rich blue tones of cyanotypes, shadow-based black-and-white photograms, and phytograms—a process that uses plants as image-makers and developers.
Each session focuses on a different process, allowing participants to experiment with light, materials, and chemistry while discovering the shared techniques and distinct visual qualities of each method. All skill levels are welcome, with an emphasis on curiosity, experimentation, and play.
