Experimental photography in IB




At the beginning of year 12 we explore experimental photography. Students use our tiny darkroom to produce pin-hole photographs and cyanotypes. They learn how to develop and print their photos. Combined with traditional techniques, students are encouraged to mix new technology with old techniques. In result, we have had a great combination of skills involved in making some of the pieces I present below:
