The cyanotype base of this image was made with spring onions during an artist residency at Oak Spring Garden Foundation in April 2023; gold gesso embellishments added later.
Each monitor displays colors differently, so the actual print may vary slightly from what you see on your screen.
The cyanotype is an alternative photographic process used by botanist Anna Atkins to make the first ever photo-based book.
