With this photographic print process from the 1850s we will realise photograms and contact prints.
We will do portraits with large format cameras direct on b/w photographic paper in 20×25cm and 9×12cm. In the second half of the workshop we will copy the negatives to create positive prints.
We will use different tools to manipulate the file data code of image files. The results differ with different image formats and manipulation techniques. The results are somewhat random but partly predictable in their style. The best-of results will be printed and put on display.
We will take photographs with a large format camera directly on photographic color paper, preferably portraits. By manipulating the standard color paper development process we will create direct positives – unique prints comparable with polaroid prints.
