Cyanotype workshop “Glaciers in Summertime”
The participatory workshop focuses on ideas and solutions for the conservation of glaciers in our daily routine. The interconnectedness of our daily behaviour regarding e.g. the omnipresence of oil based materials and its impact on our natures balance will be experienced.
As a hands-on, outside workshop format, the participants will discover the similarity and closeness of natural life and artificial objects. On a discovery tool these proximities will be captured in cyanotypes of plants, trees, water, found objects.
Workshop schedule:
– Arrive, get to know each other, round of introductions, introduction to the workshop.
– 10 min meditation and connection with the natural space, local ecosystem, multi-sensory perception
– Exchange: glaciers, protection of ecosystems. What is the current situation and what can be done NOW?
– Introduction to the technique of cyanotype
– Exploring the environment together, collecting – Creation and visual representation of the solutions/ideas on cyanotype pictures, “imprint”, trace, artistic portrait of the place
– Reflection of the day
