ARTA135 — Alternative Processes in Art
ARTA 135 - Alternative Processes in Art ARTA 135 - Alternative Processes in Art This studio course introduces students to a diverse range of historical processes that predate contemporary digital and modern printing methods. These historical techniques involve hand-coating light-sensitive surfaces, using sunlight for exposure, experimenting with new materials, and embracing the unique aesthetic qualities and “imperfections” of the resulting images. Each process offers a distinct look, tone, and texture that cannot be replicated with modern techniques. In a lab setting, exploration may include cyanotype, gum bichromate, Vandyke printing, albumen prints as well as other experimental methods allowing for artistic expression. Studio Fee Required.
