Edinburgh Printmakers and The ACTINIC Festival are working in partnership to present an exhibition of photographic printmaking by Scottish based artists, that celebrates the techniques of ‘Actinism’ in the context of contemporary visual arts practice.
Each of the works on display will demonstrate the techniques of ‘Actinism’ which is an intrinsic property in radiation that produces photochemical activity, and within the medium of photography includes processes such as photochromism, pinhole photography, salt albumen, chemigram, and instant film.
