Hello all!
I need your amazing knowledge in this area. I'm doing a show for my first BA Fine Art project, and I have an idea of what I want my final piece to be, but not the knowledge to do it, which sucks.
Basically, I know from my limited experience in the darkroom that the paper used is light sensitive and goes black when light hits it? What I want to do is show a big piece of paper that turns black over the course of the day- so much, much, much slower than usual. Is there any way I can slow down the reaction: a chemical, a clear covering of some sorts?
Failing that, anyway it could work in the opposite way? A blackened paper fading slowly over a day.
I know I sound like the world's biggest noob, but I've only a very basic, sixth form knowledge of this area, and would be very grateful for any help or ideas you have!
Thanks so much guys x
