Alternative Printing

Alternative Printing

I plan to create prints using alternative nineteenth and twentieth-century printing processes. Many historical processes used ultraviolet light for exposure, and the sun was a readily available source, albeit inconsistent and unpredictable.

I added an ultraviolet flood light to the studio as a reliable source to expose prints. It hangs above a work table and can expose prints of various sizes by adjusting its height. It produces eleven watts of luminous flux, so the exposure time for large prints is practical for my use.
