Workshop

Water Cities Rotterdam: Opperclaes x Nieuwe Instituut

Add your own blueprint of the Nieuwe Instituut grounds to the artworks that will clad the floating pavilions of Water Cities Rotterdam. Join design studio Opperclaes’ workshop on cyanotypes, an ancient technique that lets you create a unique print of leaves, branches and objects found in the area to be added into the design of the cladding.

Paint paper with special light-sensitive chemicals, place objects on top, and let the whole thing dry in the sun to create unique prints. Opperclaes will then use these as the basis for the final artworks on the canvas used to clad the floating pavilions. Up to 15 participants can join this workshop.

Read more about the design studio Opperclaes on their website.
