A chemigram is a image which is created in a darkroom by using chemicals and light sensitive paper. They were invented by Pierre Cordier in the 1950s .Whilst researching about chemigrams I found a fine art photographer called Chloe Mccarrick.Her studio is in London where where she creates unique prints and presents.Her work includes chemigrams.
We learnt how to create our own.The first thing we did was create a chemigram by using our hand.I started by placing my hand into the developer and then placing it on the paper for 30 seconds.I then placed the paper in the stop bath for 1 minute.Then I placed it in the fixer and then water both 5 minutes.I did this again but placed my hand in the fixer first and starting the process from the start.once I had done that we created chemigrams with leaves.
