PROJECT: CBC Sun Prints
ARTIST: Caitriona Dunnett

Caitriona Dunnett is an Irish artist based in the West Midlands. She investigates memory and its subjective, personal and forgotten narratives through nineteenth century photographic techniques.

CBC Sun prints engaged with families from the Black Country in one of the earliest forms of photography.

They took part in a creative and communal activity from the comfort of their own homes. Caitriona posted a packet of pre-coated cyanotype paper and created an instagram account and posted the examples that they sent her.

COMMENTS FROM PARTICIPANTS:

“It was fun to try something different and also see the creations of other families on Instagram.”

“Really lovely, well thought through and well organised. The packs were great and the resulting Instagram page is beautiful. The prints were really fun to do.”
