Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Join us on an exciting journey to transform our own photographs, captured and developed during our analog class, into stunning cyanotype images.
This creative process not only allows us to explore a unique non-digital craft but also provides a platform to showcase our artistic expressions to the community.
By utilizing this beautiful, historical photographic technique, we will discover a fresh and innovative way to share our stories and perspectives, enriching our community’s appreciation for art and craftsmanship.
We invite you to support our vision for this engaging project as we bridge traditional photography with contemporary creativity!
