Wilderland has two websites, one always-on, higher resolution website that is heavier to run, and one experimental, situated site, that is solar powered, and in the Nephin Park
The solar site might not always be on or available, it also has other quirks, and will be slower. Adjust your expectactions for this Permacomputing + Small Web alternative.
In this workshop artist Clare will introduce us to cyanotype printing, sometimes called sun-printing. It is one of the oldest photography techniques and the process works quickly in reaction to light, transforming images into beautiful blue prints.
Clare will demonstrate the process and will guide participants step-by-step through the making of a print. We may be outside for a short while to forage materials, so please dress for the weather.
Clare will introduce the Flower Féilire project, a year-long plant collection project to produce a collaborative cyanotype artwork for Mayo's indigenous plant life, and how you and your community can get involved. And we’ll also hear about the Wilderland public art and climate action project, and how communities can join its collaborative art and ecology projects over the next year.
Everyone welcome.
