2024 Summer School
Lecturers: Cassie Thring & Rosina Possingham
Thu 18 Jan
10.00am – 4.00pm
Level – Beginner onwards
In this 1-day workshop, join artists Rosina Possingham and Cassie Thring and explore the fun process of cyanotype printmaking. Learn how to prep paper and fabric, construct negatives from a variety of media, and then develop the prints, using the sun and light box. Be mesmerised as you wash out the print, watching the deep blues and white appear before your eyes. A short presentation of how the artists use this process in their own practices and the history of cyanotype printing will be included. A fun day to explore your creativity in a playful way, and to extend your visual vocabulary. Participants are encouraged to bring along any objects or plants to print with, as well as their own lunch, closed in shoes and an apron please.
All materials, paper, chemicals, brushes etc will be provided.
Cassie Thring is a multidisciplinary artist living and working on Kaurna Land. Often working with ceramics, she creates sculptural and functional forms, and runs community workshops that explore the versatility and joy of clay.
