CYANOTYPES

Cyanotypes are images created as an alternative process to traditional photography. Paper, or fabric; or tons of other things, is coated with a solution of iron salts. Objects are laid on top and the material is exposed to UV light.

The following works were created in the years 2022 and 2023, a transitional time for me as I adjusted to motherhood.
