heavy contrast to intensify colour

Cyanotype scans

I used Cyanotype on paper with my acetate negative image over the top and placed it under a UV light machine so the image could appear on the paper. this worked really well and the initial results were a really nice green tone. however without washing the paper, the image will keep reacting to the UV light. But if I washed the paper I loose the green tone. I scanned the initial results and then kept them covered.

For Exhibition

I made A1 sized cyanotype pieces for the exhibition space. however, maintaining the image from the day I made the pieces to the exhibition would be very difficult as any natural light can affect it. I really wanted the real cyanotype pieces to be displayed in the exhibition so I kept them concealed. but to make sure I definitely documented how the pieces looked in their best stages, I photographed them like what Andy Lock would do.
