Chromotography Workshop with the Sustainable Darkroom
Reveal images of Lacock's soil through chromotography with eco-photography research collective: the Sustainable Darkroom.
- Booking not needed
Chromotography is an image making process that visualises insights into the vitality and health of soils. Get hands on with this mediative, slow process combining science, ecology and photography. Using the sensitivity of silver nitrate, this process produces an x-ray of the ecosystem at Lacock, and the landscape that inspired Henry Fox Talbot in his early experiments with photography.
The workshop runs for 2.5 hours and includes entry to the Fox Talbot Museum and Abbey, and a hot drink in the cafe.
