CYANOTYPE | blueprints

Cyanotype is a 19th-century process invented by Herschel that creates striking blue prints using light-sensitive chemicals. By placing objects or negatives on treated paper and exposing it to sunlight, the exposed areas turn deep blue while the covered parts remain white. For this series, I used cyanotype as a new printmaking technique to explore color.

Neon

In this series, I combined my travel photographs from distant destinations with natural elements such as twigs, feathers, and stones, alongside stray pieces of plastic. The aim was to create a dreamy/ surreal atmosphere. To make the images stand out, I digitally added bright neon colors that sharply contrast with their original soft and delicate appearance.

Identity

During this period, I faced personal challenges related to my well-being and identity. Through creating and sharing my art- previously a private practice- I found a new way to process my thoughts. These images reflect feelings of uncertainty and questions about who I am.
