About the Item

Original, uniquie cyanotype. “I love this means of directly using sun and water to create my art,” says Terri Dilling. “It is a collaboration with nature. The weather and the season actually have an effect on the resulting exposures.” Cyanotype is a process that creates a cyan-blue print through exposure to UV light. It is a classic exposure process that has been around since the 1800s; however, Terri Dilling’s unique painterly approach transforms a traditional method into a contemporary expression. Dilling paints the cyanotype fluid directly onto high-quality archival papers, similar to painting with ink. The work is exposed outside in the sun and then rinsed in water. After that, she uses a variety of toning methods and multiple exposure layers to achieve visual depth and variation within the medium. Dilling works in several different series, each one with meaning or metaphor at its root. For instance, the “Blue Suspension Series” and “Blue Strata Series” involve draping and crossing lines that explore movement and balance.
