Cyanotype - Taster Workshop

Learn about Cyanotype or ‘blue print’ - one of photography’s oldest printing methods. Reminiscent of the alchemists of yesteryear, you can use a negative image on acetate, a drawing on tracing paper, or even real objects to create a stunning image without a camera. Leena Nammari is a Palestinian artist printmaker based in Scotland. She has exhibited within Scotland, Europe, Palestine, and Australia as part of group exhibitions and has had a number of solo exhibitions. She is an expert printmaker, in all aspects of printmaking, though she has also worked in film, photography, bronze, and ceramics. She obtained her undergraduate degree in Fine Art Printmaking from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design, University of Dundee where she also completed her MFA in Arts & Humanities. ABOUT TASTER WORKSHOPS Please note that short Taster workshops are not intended as stand-alone access courses. Due to the short nature of this workshop, we do a lot of the preparation for you and streamline the process so you get a finished print at the end of the day. This does mean that you will need more training before you are self-sufficient in this process and can work in the studio without assistance. To use Edinburgh Printmakers' open-access studio facilities, you will need to attend a weekend/evening course or refresher/induction class before becoming a member. How much further training is required is based on each individual’s previous printmaking experience. Book over a month in advance to receive 15% off the course price with our Early Bird tickets!
