Students explore cyanotype in Photography, blending creativity with hands-on techniques.

The Photography Learning Area, known for its strong results and creative work, continues to provide students with engaging and practical learning experiences.

Recently, students explored cyanotype, a historic photographic process developed in 1842 and best known for producing blueprints. Using light-sensitive paper prepared by their teacher, students selected objects and experimented with composition, focusing on bold shapes and silhouettes.

After exposing their designs to sunlight, the prints were developed in a vinegar and water solution, revealing vivid white-on-blue artworks. Each piece reflected careful planning and creative thinking, with students experimenting confidently with layout and form.

Through this process, students developed their visual and technical skills while working with both traditional and contemporary techniques.
