In this workshop you’ll transform some of your own photos using a 50 year old experimental photographic technique.

Officially known as the polaroid-transfer-emulsion-lift, or more informally the polaroid transfer or polaroid lift, this alternative take on an instant photography classic involves boiling, peeling and separating polaroid prints to create unique, one-off artworks.
