Magical and simple cyanotypes are an alternative photographic process that results in graphic blue and white prints.


Developed in 1841 by Sir Jon Herschel, the cyanotype process was used by botanist Anna Atkins Atkins to make the first ever photographic book in 1843.

In this pop-up event, MAC Artist in Residence Madge Evers will use an experimental form of the cyanotype process that allows her to work in situ; she will create a series of images on paper that use and depict the flora of MAC.

Meet at Story Chapel. Participants will make their own composition and Evers will process them in water in front of the Visitor Center. All are welcome to observe and ask questions.
