Lumen | Printed by the Sun
The Cyanotype Process: Foraged from the land around us, objects like leaves, flowers, lichens or feathers are placed on the fabric. These block the light during exposure to UV light.
As the Hebridean sun shines – often soft and unpredictable, yet capable of casting a crisp light over the landscape – the fabric undergoes a chemical transformation. The exposed areas turn into a rich, deep blue, while the unexposed sections retain their original colour, creating striking silhouettes of the objects.
