ANALYSIS
LOCATION: I DECIDED TO PHOTOGRAPH MANCHESTER AS IT CONNECTED TO MY PREVIOUS PHOTOSHOOT. I EXPLORED DIFFERENT AREAS AND PHOTOGRAPHED BUILDINGS, PEOPLE, STREETS AND PIECES OF GRAFFITI I PASSED BY.
CONTACT SHEET
AREAS I PHOTOGRAPHED: NORTHERN QUARTER - OLDHAM STREET, SALMON STREET, MARKET STREET, DEANSGATE
SELECTIONS
DEVELOPMENTS
PROCESS: I PRINTED SOME OF MY BEST SELECTIONS ONTO ACETATE BEFORE PLACING IT OVER CYANOTYPE PAPER. AFTER PLACING A GLASS SLIDE OVER IT I LEFT IT IN THE SUN TO DEVELOP. HOW STRONG THE UV WAS DICTATED HOW WELL THE CYANOTYPE WOULD DEVELOP AND I DISCOVERED ONE HOUR WAS BEST FOR MY PRINTS.
I WAS INTERESTED IN USING CYANOTYPE FOR MY FINAL STAGE AS I WANTED TO ATTEMPT CREATE PHYSICAL PHOTOGRAPHY PIECES THAT RESONATED WITH THE PHOTOGRAPHS AS I USED PHOTOS OF LESS MODERNISED BUILDINGS AS WELL AS THE CAR ON MY LAST CYANOTYPE PRINT.
