In our fast-living, instant and sometimes even disposable digital culture, HOP aims to bring back the charm and feeling of anticipation in analogue photography — elements that are very much missing in an age where images are created instantaneously by the click of a button.Converted from a shipping container, the House of Photography (HOP) is a mobile darkroom which started operation in October 2012. Since then, HOP has roved to over 12 locations across Singapore ranging from schools, libraries, museums to shopping malls. HOP shares the knowledge of photography through hands-on activities and workshops specially crafted for participants of all ages. Whether you are a photography hobbyist or a complete amateur, this will be a refreshing experience for everyone.About Cyanotype Printing:An alternative photographic printing process introduced in 1842, cyanotype printing is a fun and easy way to create camera-less images. Engineers and scientists used the process well into the 20th century as a simple and low-cost process to produce copies of drawings, referred to as blueprints.
