Using household materials such as vitamin c tablets and washing soda, participants will learn how to make their very own light sensitive chemistry. This can then be applied to light sensitive materials such as 35mm film to create unique prints.  

In the workshop participants will paint using their chemistry and then make relief prints with objects such as leaves, which they then process using darkroom fixer to make them translucent.
