i know i have been doing it for awhile (see my peak on this platform aka my cyanotote) BUT i dropped it for a bit up until now thanks to a crazy idea that im trying:
for context, initially when i was messing around with it and making the cyanotote was killing two birds with one stone (or tote ig) - i was working on a way of incorporating the waste from the chemicals into a relief/lino printing ink!
there’s a call for exhibition at my local photo art centre and as a photographer/alt process girl/enjoyer of the unconventional i am **attempting** to see if it’s possible for me to use my cyanotype printing ink on top of a printed photo because i got a UV light that can help me be in control of the UV exposure of the chemicals
does the guy at the print shop think i’m a lil crazy for trying this? yeah but i also acknowledge it is + we’re both excited to see if this works

so so fun to do with plants but also cutouts and fun items. developing photos is so cool & you don’t even need to take photos for this (and relatively affordable!) i can’t wait to try it on fabric/clothes as well ‼

on a VERY big cyanotype kick lately so I have been plotting and tinkering and wanted to make myself something special and unique so I captured the essence of girlhood aka dumped the contents of my tote bag and printed it ONTO the bag (is this meta - also pls ignore the bleed this is literally only my fifth time doing this)

love that i have a camera that lets me do multiple exposures without having to frankenstein the film out of the roll after i’ve finished it (feat. my lovely partner) !!
