Join us for Sun and Stitch: Anthotype Printing & Stab Binding with artist Nicole Combeau—a hands-on, three-hour workshop that blends alternative photography and bookmaking traditions.
We invite you to experiment with anthotype printing, using botanicals and ready-made negatives to create two unique sun prints. Once dried, these prints will be bound into personalized artist books using a traditional Japanese stab binding technique.
Together, we’ll also explore the history of “kitchen” and camera-less photography and look at how local artists—such as Amanda Linares, Onajide Shabaka, and Season Six commissioned artist Antonia Wright—have incorporated these practices into their work.
This workshop will be led by Combeau, a Miami-based Colombian-American artist and educator. Her practice draws on family, ritual, and resilience, creating images and intergenerational programs that reflect on how memory and connection endure across time. Through teaching, Combeau brings together photography and community practice to explore how care sustains and connects us all.
