Artist and filmmaker Karel Doing will give a workshop about phytography, a technique that makes it possible to render detailed chemical traces of plants directly on photographic emulsion. The process takes place in full daylight and makes use of biodegradable chemistry.
During the workshop the artist will explain his technique and provide a hands-on demonstration. He will also talk about early photography, related experimental techniques and ecological awareness.

Participants will work on photographic paper and 16mm film.

The resulting animation will be projected the same day at Independent Film Show 22 edition
