CAITRIONA DUNNETT, Farmers Track
Caitriona’s practice is influenced by the land and its stories. During a residency on the Beara Peninsula Dunnett spent time on the land photographing the dramatic landscape, its unspoiled bogland shadowed by the sweeping Caha Mountains.
She used contemporary techniques to convert her digital files into contact negatives to create handcrafted prints, working with the cyanotype, an early non-toxic photographic technique introduced by John Hershel, in 1842.
Dunnett has been experimenting with incorporating the landscape into her process by working with materials foraged from the land. She toned her Prussian blue prints with oak galls collected on the Beara Peninsula.
Toned cyanotype on photographic paper. Cyanotype chemicals, paper and oak gall.

Frame size: Frame and mount 390mm x 295mm x 35mm
Mount aperture: 280mm x 190mm
Frame type: black wood
