Light through Leaves Triptych (three 18 x 24" original botanical cyanotypes on paper)
(2021. Three hand-printed cyanotypes on paper, total 24 x 54 inches/ 137 x 61 cm)
These are all quadruple exposure cyanotypes. The different shades of blue are created by exposing some parts of the light-sensitive paper to sunlight longer than others. Cyanotypes are a kind of 19th century cameraless photographic process from before the 1840s.
My layering and monochromatic multi-tone technique is inspired by different kinds of printmaking that I have practiced in the past, especially multiple-plate block prints and aquatints. There is no printing press, no ink, no etched copper plate nor carved wood block to be able to reproduce these images. Each is a unique monotype made using real plants from my own garden.
These are THREE 24 x 18 inch cyanotypes which are each unique hand-printed monoprints. If you were to mat and frame each print separately in a standard 30 x 24 inch frame, they would span much more than 54 inches across the wall: over 72 inches (180 cm.). Around 6 and a half feet with gaps of 3 inches between the frames.
Unframed. Depictions in frames are only to give a sense of how much wall space framed works would cover.
