Workshop: Making lumen prints

‘This hands-on workshop is a combination of historical (alternative) and digital processes to create camera-less photographic images. You will learn how to create a Lumen Print (Solar Photogram), which is a camera-less photographic process, using traditional photographic paper/film and UV light from the Queensland sun. You will also will learn how to scan and edit your lumen prints to create digital versions. In addition to this, you will learn how to fix lumen prints using traditional photographic darkroom processes.

Participation in this course will enable you to experience the physicality and tactility of traditional historic camera-less photographic image creation along with cutting-edge digital technology. Tutor : Shehab Uddin.’ MSPG website.
