What you can do at the Alternative Photography Workshop

We create our own emulsions, like in cyanotype process. We can use the technique of gum printing, using gum and colour pigments, and make a Kallitype print, the forerunner of the ‘modern’ darkroom paper. We use contact negatives when printing, which can easily be printed on transparent materials and in any format, thanks to contemporary computers and printers. The prints are not entirely predictable and reproducible, making each print unique.

The machines can be used independently after receiving instructions about use. We collaborate with other workshops at the KABK and beyond. We have a good relationship with many of our suppliers, as well as with alumni.
