ROOT Workshop: Wednesday 16 July 11.00 - 15.00

£100.00

A creative ritual connecting to the magic of Earth.

Learn how to make a Mud Developer and Sea water fixer. Chemical free alternatives to developing darkroom prints. You will then be guided to create a print or mini print series in the darkroom.

To Bring;

  • A jar of earth

This could be from your garden, childhood home, from the pot of your favourite plant, from the home you’ve always lived or perhaps hope to live. The earth that connects you with feeling rooted and secure.

  • A jar of sea water

This could be from the sea nearest to your home, or the sea you love to visit most or perhaps the sea you like to swim or surf in. The sea that connects you with a sense of home and belonging.

This workshop is for 1 or 2 people booking together. It’s perfect for beginners to the darkroom or beginners to plant-based darkroom practice. It’s also great for any person with a creative block and releasing feelings of being stuck.

You can bring your own negatives to create a print from, or you can bring objects to lay over the paper to make ‘Photograms’ or forage for objects in the darkroom studio and surrounding countryside.

This is a completely natural chemical free way of creating photographs and is suitable for all ages, stages and abilities.

All materials are provided and the workshop will last for 4 hours and you will make up to 4 prints to take home.

Free parking, wheelchair and pushchair accessible. Pet friendly!
