An event held at The Cube on Sunday 5th March. The event starts at 11:00.
Join artist Karel Doing for a workshop exploring his 'Phytography' process.
The Phytography process enables interaction between the phytochemical properties of plants and photochemical emulsion as a method that strives for a deeper relationship with plants, both through observation and education. The method can be applied and exhibited in various ways: on film, in installations, directly on photopaper and as enlarged prints. Phytography is the practical outcome of a research project by artist Karel Doing focussed on the representation of the natural world in cinema.
