A Day in the Sun: Cyanotypes with Dione Lee
Join artist Dione Lee on Earth Day for an artist talk and art-making workshop exploring the medium of cyanotyping as a collaboration with the sun. Participants will experiment with the creative possibilities of transparency and opacity, light sensitivity and time. Museum admission is included in the workshop registration.
Dione Lee’s banner design, Scales, explores the tangled relationship between order and chaos in the creation of peace. Presented as a series of digitally-altered cyanotypes, the work juxtaposes human craft and machine generation as a reflection of entropy and control: two fundamental elements of peace and harmony.
