Botanical Imprints: Cyanotype with Medicinal Plants
This workshop invites participants to explore image-making through cyanotype, a cameraless photographic process that uses sunlight and photosensitive compounds to produce images in deep blue tones. Participants will work with medicinal herbs—such as lavender, sage, and rosemary—to create botanical photographs on fabric and cotton paper, exploring the forms and textures of plants. Led by Cinthya Santos-Briones.

Tintype Portrait Booth
Have your portrait taken at Penumbra Foundation’s Tintype Portrait booth!
Penumbra has been making tintypes at Photoville for over a decade. Considered by many to be the Polaroid of the 19th century, the tintype is made almost instantaneously through a process that uses hand poured chemicals on an enameled sheet of metal. Guests can sign up to have their portrait made through this historical process and will walk away that day with their own unique heirloom.
