Printing with Copper and Iron Emulsions

Bookings being taken directly with Sustainable Darkroom- please follow the links and direct questions to them about the workshop week.

Discover alternatives to silver based emulsions. In this workshop, we will look at a number of different printing processes using both copper and iron as a basis for our photographic prints. Combining photograms and monoprinting we will consider how emulsions made from other metals can be used for photographic emulsions and across printmaking techniques.

You will learn how to make the emulsions from scratch and work with them across a range of surfaces. 

Experience level: No previous darkroom experience necessary.

When: Thursday 4th September, 11.00 - 2.00pm.

Where: Bristol Folk House Darkroom, 40a Park St, Bristol BS1 5JG.
