This immersive workshop blends creative introspection with hands-on making. Through a mix of a guided introspection exercises, you’ll be guided to connect with the natural world and use its wisdom to inspire you. Then, we’ll bring your inspiration to life through the magical technique of cyanotype printing, using sunlight, water, and foraged materials to create striking botanical blueprints.
Whether you’re a seasoned creative or simply curious, this workshop offers a chance to slow down and explore how working with nature can enrich your creative process.
We’ll start the day at Kunstraum Heartspace, where Tali will guide you through mixing and applying the light-sensitive cyanotype solution to your paper.
Then, we’ll step into the introspective part of the workshop. Nienke will lead a gentle guided excursion to a nearby park, where you’ll tune into nature through mindful movement, intention-setting, and creative prompts. You’ll forage materials and use a reflection booklet to capture the insights you receive.
Back in the studio, we’ll share what emerged, compose our prints with foraged and provided objects, and develop them in the sun — watching your compositions turn a vivid, deep blue.
Poetically, cyanotype is painting with light.
It’s a historic, camera-less photographic process that involves placing objects on paper coated in a solution of iron salts, exposing it to UV light, and rinsing it in water to create dreamlike white-and-blue images. Simple, beautiful, and meditative.
