Emerging from experiments in the 1700s and later refined by \u003cspan class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"whitespace-normal\"\u003eHenry Fox Talbot\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e in the 1830s, it became a foundational method for producing reproducible images using light-sensitive silver salts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt a time when images were singular and fragile, Salt Printing introduced the possibility of repeatable photographic reproduction. It sits at a turning point in visual history, bridging scientific experimentation, chemistry, and image-making. Its soft sepia tones and uneven surfaces reflect both its age and its manual nature, where each print is shaped by touch, timing, and material response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"829\" data-end=\"1111\"\u003eUnlike modern digital printing, Salt Printing is slow and process-driven. Every stage from coating to exposure to washing, directly affects the final image. Its archival qualities are also dependent on careful handling, making each print both an image and a record of its own making.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1113\" data-end=\"1507\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1113\" data-end=\"1132\"\u003eIn This Workshop\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1132\" data-end=\"1135\"\u003eParticipants will be guided through both the historical grounding and practical workflow of Salt Printing, including:\u003cbr data-start=\"1252\" data-end=\"1255\"\u003e• The origins and development of early photographic processes\u003cbr data-start=\"1316\" data-end=\"1319\"\u003e• Preparation of digital negatives\u003cbr data-start=\"1353\" data-end=\"1356\"\u003e• Hands-on Salt Printing workflow (chemistry pre-prepared)\u003cbr data-start=\"1414\" data-end=\"1417\"\u003e• Chemical handling, safety, and process control\u003cbr data-start=\"1465\" data-end=\"1468\"\u003e• Troubleshooting and tonal variation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1509\" data-end=\"1690\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1509\" data-end=\"1530\"\u003eYou’ll Leave With\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1530\" data-end=\"1533\"\u003e• 2–3 A5 Salt prints (depending on time and process flow)\u003cbr data-start=\"1590\" data-end=\"1593\"\u003e• 1 digital negative prepared for future printing\u003cbr data-start=\"1642\" data-end=\"1645\"\u003e• 1 informational pamphlet on Salt Printing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan role=\"text\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1701\" data-end=\"1725\"\u003eAbout the Instructor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1728\" data-end=\"2108\"\u003eChristopher Gio Sarsono (b. 2000, Bandung, Indonesia) is a photographer, printmaker, and founder of Dog Days Photo Lab.
