Illuminated Quilting

Work Sample for Block Party Cyanotype Quilt project

I went to the elementary school in Sunset Park to set up, which included bringing my lightbox to shoot the collages on acetate (Thanks for the ride Hawley!) for the cyanotype prints.  Here is my work sample above. The light box is below.

Seeing "Light Quilts" Everywhere

My supervisor called this project Light Quilts, which flipped a switch in my brain-Wow I love this idea! Soon, I started seeing Light Quilts everywhere.  Here's the one I saw at the subway station.

Then I just started shooting different patterns I saw on the way home and I made this 

"Photo Light Quilt". 

Photo Light Quilt

 I start working with the students this Wednesday and will have photos of their first prints by Thursday.
Wish me luck and stay tuned . . .
