Please note: This event has been canceled. 

Get to know Zalika Azim, this year’s St. Elmo Arts in Fellow in this interactive, botanical photography workshop using cyanotype. One of the earliest photographic techniques, cyanotype uses a combination of chemically treated paper and sunlight to produce detailed Prussian Blue images. Zalika takes inspiration from nature and human experience to document life using cyanotypes. In this hands-on workshop, participants will first explore the origins and evolution of cyanotypes, paying homage to its scientific and artistic legacies. Finally, we will learn the fundamentals of cyanotypes printing using images of family and objects from nature to document life’s experiences.

All levels are welcome. This workshop is designed for those with no prior knowledge of using cyanotype.

All materials and instructions are included with registration. Upon registration each registrant is encouraged to send in at least 1 family image to be used during the workshop.

Space is limited and registration is required. This class will take place in person at the Wildflower Center.

$45 per person, all materials are included
Members receive a discount on registration. Learn more about membership here.
