Plants & Projections with the Blueberry Students!

This week at our fourth workshop we are starting to think about presentation. How do we see our garden? What are the problems we have faced, and how can we fix this?

Whilst weeding, planting and watering we discussed what we love about our garden and how we can make it even better. With this in mind going inside we started to make signs to help people respect and enjoy the space as we do.

The second section of the workshop we began experimenting with our plants and their placement on the acetate overhead projectors, then we experimented with placing sections of plant in projector slides to explore the colours and textures they have.

We also had a go at making cyanotypes with the Blueberry students, using pictures from Woodend back in the day. Cyanotype is a photographic processes using ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide to make a light sensitive liquid which is painted on paper, using black and white transparent images UV light reacts through the light spaces making a solar powered print!
