By placing objects directly onto photosensitive paper and then exposing them to light, we will produce enigmatic images through a photography technique adopted since the mid-19th century, which does not use a camera. Opacity, transparency and translucency will be concepts dealt with in the practice of this workshop.
Caffenol is an alternative low-toxicity photographic developer, created by Dr Scott A. Williams and his class on the Technical Photography course at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in the USA in the 1990s. This discovery makes it possible to develop photographic or cinematographic film using simple, accessible, cheap and non-toxic reagents, facilitating the use of processes that would otherwise be closed to people in regions or countries without access to more complex chemistry and also allowing work with children.
