Cyanotype is an alternative photographic printing process discovered in the 1840s that utilizes light-sensitive iron salts. Each garment is a hand-crafted ¹⁄₁ cyanotype made with sunlight or UV light. The blue coloration details vary from garment to garment, given the alchemical reaction. Every purchase supports my printmaking and research practice!

Care: Machine wash in cold water with a free & clear (hypoallergenic formula) detergent. Tumble or air dry out of direct sunlight. There is no bleeding dye ever; it is safe to wash with other items since it is chemically fixed.

“I sell the sunlight to support the substance” shirts

The text is informed by the postcards that abolitionist Sojourner Truth sold, which included the motto “I Sell the Shadow to Support the Substance,” to fund her cause.
