The Chemigram Process
1. Choose one of the resists to draw onto the photographic paper (this can be done in the light). You can scratch into it, move it around with your fingers or other objects to create different marks.
Resist materials to explore
masking tape
sugary drink such as Lucozade, squash
vegetable oil
salt, sugar granules
instant coffee
honey
Masking fluid
2. Put the paper with the resist in either the developer (to get a black background) or the fixer (to get a white background).
3. Whenever the paper looks finished developing or fixing, move it to the water wash. Rinse well enough, still not touching the surface and marring the resist, and then put it in the opposite tray of fixer or developer, respectively.
4. The resist will start its dissolution process, some resists sooner than later.
Add fixer for a white on black print. Fixer, developer, stop bath, fixer.
Add developer first for a black on white print. Developer, stop bath fixer
5. When the chemigram is ‘done’, get as much of the resist off as possible, and then do a final fix for five minutes, rinse for five minutes and dry.
Methods to explore 1. Developer/fixer painted/sponged/dabbed/dripped on to photo paper 2. Objects dipped in developer/fixer and printed on to paper. 3. Use of resists to create abstract shapes/patterns/textures
