Workshop and Artist Talk with Caroline Roberts


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 04/01/2023
Join artist Caroline Roberts for an artist talk and image making workshop in conjunction with the exhibition Contact: Making Images Using the Cyanotype Process. Focusing on the relationships between civilization and the natural world, Roberts uses a combination of historic alternative photographic techniques and musicological display tropes to instigate conversation about the human desire to classify and control nature.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

Following Roberts’s talk, guests are invited to use natural materials such as flowers, leaves, twigs, and flora collected in Houston to create unique cyanotype prints inspired by Caroline Roberts’s art practice. The workshop is free and open to the public, and all materials are provided. Guests are welcome to bring their own natural materials to use during the workshop.

If you are interested in creating a cyanotype image from an existing photograph, follow the Photoshop instructions in this video, and email your JPG file to info@fotofest.org with the subject line “Contact Negative.” FotoFest will print your negative on transparency paper at no charge.

Registration is not required but is encouraged.
