SUMMARY:Cyanotype Workshop
DESCRIPTION:What better way to embrace the sun than solar printing? On July 12th\, join us with artist Sonia Bazar for a cyanotype workshop. \nWorkshop participants are invited to create their own cyanotype print using pretreated cyanotype fabric\, found plant matter and personal household items. During the workshop\, Bazar will guide guests in creating their pieces\, and will demonstrate how the medium is used in her artistic practice. Upon bringing the cyanotypes home\, prints can be stitched into a tote bag\, hoodie\, or even a quilt for an added special touch. All levels of experience are welcome!  \nMeeting Point: We will meet the corner of Rue St-Dominique and Av. Fairmount (approximate address: 5198 rue St-Dominique). Afterwards\, we will make our way back to the Museum of Jewish Montreal (5220 boul. St-Laurent). \nIn addition to foraged materials\, guests are encouraged to bring items from home! We suggest objects with elements of translucency and that can easily fit under a sheet of glass. Some ideas include: \n●     Lace \n●     Mesh \n●     Jewelry \n●     Photo negatives \n●     Small figurines \n●     Dried flowers \n●     Buttons \n●     Thread or yarn \nTickets are $25\, with all necessary materials provided. Due to limited capacity\, advanced registration is encouraged. \nSonia Bazar is a Montreal-born and based artist\, who holds an MFA in Photography from Concordia University. Through sculpture\, photography and poetry\, their practice examines the notion of alien landscapes and how the body belongs to space. Sonia’s work has been shown in Canada\, Germany\, and Spain. In 2023\, Bazar presented her multidisciplinary practice in the exhibition BACK RIVER at the Museum of Jewish Montreal.
