I had quite a bit of cyanotype solution leftover so I decided to really cover the paper with it, causing pools of the solution to dry thicker than other areas.
Got some really interesting effects where the solution was particularly thick. This caused it to wash off when fixing it yet it was thick enough to leave the paper underneath white and unexposed.
For example in the cyanotype of me looking over my shoulder into the mirror has a white hand like mark on it. I feel that this is a really strong portrayal of the ‘battle of self’. a separation of personalities that lead to a feeling of not being able to trust oneself or even fear it.
