Set in the landscape with an extravaganza of 19th and 20th-century equipment, we are facilitating a series of Plein-air tintype, cyanotype, and anthotype processes using various materials hand-coated plates, paper, fabric, and plant-based pigments. These alchemical processes combine science and wonder; collaboration and experimentation as part of events and activities throughout this session. Participants set up a photography studio in the field and Barn Lyceum for processing and development. The work will culminate in an exhibition at The Mildred Complex(ity) Project Space in nearby Narrowsburg, NY this coming fall.
