Participants of this workshop are encouraged to gather a variety of soil samples for the workshop to diversify your experience. You will grind down these samples to use in the printmaking process.

This is combined with silver nitrate to create a light sensitive surface, which is then used to create a photographic record of the components held within each solution. As the solution spreads across the circular filter paper, organic matter is separated and a natural banding effect is created.
