Age: 18+ Dat: Saturday July 12, 2025 Time: 1 - 4 PM Cost: M $70 and NM $75 Instructor: Leila Fatemi Join artist Leila Fatemi for an experimental, hands-on workshop that explores the intersection of photography and ceramics through photolithography and cyanotype on clay. Inspired by Fatemi’s current residency in the AGB Ceramics Studio and her solo exhibition A Vessel to Bend Water in the Perry Gallery, this session invites participants to engage with image-making through material experimentation and surface transformation.  Using photographic imagery as a starting point, we’ll learn how to transfer and embed visual narratives onto clay surfaces, merging light-sensitive processes with tactile materiality. The workshop will introduce two alternative photographic processes—photolithography and cyanotype—adapted for clay. Participants will learn how to transfer photographic imagery using toner-based lithographic techniques, as well as how to apply the cyanotype process to create rich, blue-toned prints on ceramic surfaces. Both approaches will be explored in an open-ended, playful environment, encouraging hands-on experimentation.  No prior experience in photography or ceramics is required—this session is open to curious makers interested in pushing the boundaries of image, surface, and form. All materials will be provided.  About the Instructor: Leila Fatemi is a visual artist currently based in Tkaronto/Toronto. Through a combination of material and textual research, her practice unfolds across a variety of mediums including photography, collage, archival materials, textile, pattern, and printmaking. Bridging themes of postcolonialism, gender, and spirituality, Fatemi's work challenges viewers to consider their role in relation to the representational accuracy and cultural consequences of Orientalized subjects. By employing methods of subversion and reclamation as tools to resist imperialist legacies, her work offers alternative perspectives surrounding the colonial gaze, ethnic representation, and collective numinous experiences.  Fatemi received a BFA in Image Arts: Photography Studies from Toronto Metropolitan University. Her work has been exhibited in Canada and internationally and has been featured in online and print media. She was the first-place recipient of the Clyde & Co. Art Award for excellence in visual art, was a finalist for the Toronto Arts Foundation Emerging Artist Award in 2020 and is the 2022–2023 recipient of the Black, Indigenous, People(s) of Colour Residency at Open Studio.
