Folkestone Darkroom Collective: Salt Photo Printing

Folkestone Darkroom Collective: Salt Photo Printing. Railway arches, Harbour Square (opposite the fountain), 12–4pm, drop-in, FREE

Looking forward to share some skills with a group of Local artists all interested on alternative processes.

Faye Golley, Emily Rose Parris, Luke Jones, Manuel Vason, Philippa Wall and Tsvetelina Ivanova celebrate photography and performance by creating unique prints using one of the oldest traditional techniques – salt printing. The process uses salted water, silver nitrate, paper, a negative film and sunlight to produce images – shipping the viewer back to Victorian times. Join the artists in their makeshift

darkroom to create and develop a portrait on Saturday, then come along on Sunday to see the finished results. Suitable for all ages.
