Prints Charming: Handcraft Memories without Ctrl+Z - A Workshop for Analog Artistry

Arts and crafts are not only an integral part of our identity, but also a unifying element that brings together people from different cultures and walks of life. In a world where some crafts have been displaced by digitalization, we want to create a space together to revive this valuable tradition.

Why we care? Because in everyday life, we feel how beneficial it is to experience craft activities in the midst of the digital hustle and bustle. Expressing creativity and creating something together connects us and brings joy to our everyday lives. Our workshop is not about perfectionism or striving for a flawless result. Together we leave the pressure of comparison behind us & discover creative freedom by exploring the artistic printing process of cyanotype.

Cyanotype, a process that is perhaps no longer well known, allows us to create beautiful imperfect images and motifs. In this one hour workshop, we cordially invite you to let yourself be enchanted by the magic of handcrafts. We will teach you how to create designs using cyanotype, you can either bring own things to make patters (like stencils) or we can use what the re:publica surroundings provide. We will be printing on paper.
