SunPrint Paper Kit
Description
The History of Sunprint Since 1975, the Sunprint Kit has provided fun,
learning, and creative stimulation for the curious of all ages. Originally
developed as a teaching tool by educators at the Lawrence Hall of Science on
the UC Berkeley campus. All proceeds from the sale of Sunprint Kits continue
to aid our mission to inspire and foster the learning of science and
mathematics for all. The SunPrint Solar Paper lets you make beautiful pictures
by placing objects on the paper and exposing it to the sun. The paper
undergoes a chemical change when exposed to sunlight. Save the print by
soaking in water then drying. The Sunprint paper can be used for a creative,
solar art project. With this paper you can also demonstrate UV blocking
sunscreen by smearing sunscreen on plexiglass and exposing the paper to the
sun. Use different strengths of sunscreen and see how the image has changed.
Sunprints encourage an interest in the photographic process using only sun,
water, and a bit of imagination. Place a fern, flower, or other object on the
special paper and set it in the sun briefly. Then rinse the paper in water and
watch as a beautiful long-lasting image appears! The Super Sunprint Kit
contains 15 8″x12″ sheets and one acrylic overlay. Ages 6 to Adult MADE IN THE
USA
Features:
- EASY TO USE: Objects that eclipse the suns light will show up in white, with the rest of the paper turning a vibrant Prussian Blue. Place a fern, flower, or other object on the special paper and set it in the sun briefly. Then rinse the paper in water and watch as a beautiful long-lasting image appears!
- HANDS-ON FUN: Sunprinting is a great hands-on activity to do with groups. Whether it be in the classroom, in a camp, a museum workshop, birthday party or any other group setting, get people together, share ideas and play
- VERSATILE: Layering techniques, motion, and manipulation of the paper itself are all implements in the Sunprinters toolbox. Make prints of physical objects or transfer digital images via transparency sheet
- ART WITH THE POWER OF THE SUN: Sunprinting is based on the cyanotype process, which has been used by artists since its development in the 19th century
- SUN-BASED SCIENCE: Sunprint paper can be used as a scientific tool. Its sensitivity to ultra-violet light lends itself to sun-based investigations. It can also be used as a measuring tool for any other UV light source, or as a photographic medium to use in scientific experiments
