Yearning for Springtime Photograph

This is a triple exposed cyanotype print on 300g cold pressed paper. I can't reproduce it again the same, though I can make a different picture using the same negative and chain. The way the daylight sensitive emulsion is applied and the choice of botanicals will make it completely different. A cyanotype is an alternative photographic printing process, like blue prints from architectural plans. I assemble them in a dark room, laying enlarged negatives and sometimes botanicals and found objects onto a surface painted with the light sensitive emulsion. I then I go outside and make a contact print in the sunshine. The paper is then washed and turns Prussian blue. This piece came about in an organic process, at one point I was going to paint her chain skirt pink but instead decided to try out doing an extra exposure with botanicals. The content is about her being chained to whatever in life is pulling her down but she is still free to dream of springtime.
