Artist Talk + Workshop | Loisaida through Cyanotypes with Maylyn ‘Zero’ Iglesia

Organized by Swiss Institute + Maylyn ‘Zero’ Iglesia

Join Maylyn ‘Zero’ Iglesias for a free artist talk and cyanotype workshop at Swiss Institute on Sunday, May 17 from 1:30–4:30PM!

We will begin by exploring Zero’s place-based photography practice, use of alternative photographic processes, and connection to Loisaida and its Nuyorican culture. This will be followed by a hands-on workshop where we will learn about the process of preparing cyanotype paper, and then develop cyanotypes of our own using transparent photo negatives of Zero’s work of the neighborhood and local found materials.

All materials are provided, though participants are welcome to bring objects, drawings, and the like that they might wish to use in their making.

The workshop portion will take place outside, on the Swiss Institute rooftop. Should there be rain, this program will be rescheduled. Rain date is May 30th.

RSVP required and spots are limited!
