About the anthotype emulsions book

For the second year running, anthotype and alternative photographic process artists from all over the world came together. On Saturday, the 19th of August 2023, anthotypes were created and photographic prints were made from plants and pigments. The second World Anthotype Day was celebrated by artists creating vibrant and colourful photographs from homemade emulsions made from plants, powders or dyes, and then exposing the prints in the sun. World Anthotype Day was facilitated by a small team at AlternativePhotography.com and this book is a collection of the artists’ research, process and notes to learn and draw inspiration from.

The collective research of almost 140 artists from 31 countries has been compiled in this book, covering emulsions made by: Annatto, Avocado, Bahraini almond, Balloon flower, Beach rose, Beetroot, Begonia, Bellflowers, Birch, Black elder, Black swallow wort, Blackcap raspberry, Bloodroot, Blueberry, Bougainvillea, Bracken, Brown-eyed Susan, Calendula, Chard, Chokeberries, Clematis, Cocoa, Cosmos, Costa Rican pitahaya, Crown lime, Dandelion, Fennel, Fern, Fireweed, Flame vine, Genipap, Geranium, Grape, Greater celandine, Hibiscus, Hollyhock, Hosta, Indian shot, Indigo, Iris, Jaboticaba, Jamaica flower, Juneberry, Kale, Lamb’s quarter, Lamb’s-ear, Lily of the valley, Lupine, Mallow, Mango, Mangosteen, Morning glory, Mulberry, Mustard, Nasturtium, Nettle, Oak, Onion, Paprika / Pepper, Peony, Peregrina, Persimmon, Plum shiso, Pokeweed, Poppy, Pumpkin, Red cabbage, Rocket, Rose, Saffron crocus, Saint George’s sword, Service berry, Silk floss tree, Sour cherry, Spinach, Squill, Strawberry, Sweet pea, Syngonium, Tayoba, Tea, Tomato, Tulip, Tulip tree, Turmeric, Walnut, Wine, Wineberry, Wonga-wonga vine and Yerba mate.

Whether you are a beginner at the anthotype process or an experienced anthotypist, this book is invaluable and will save time in finding the next plant or pigment to use in your printing, or simply give you inspiration.

About the editor

Malin Fabbri has, over 23 years as an editor of AlternativePhotography.com, combined her academic and practical experience to facilitate the learning and inspirational resource that AlternativePhotography.com is today.

She grew up in Sweden, but, in her early twenties, moved to London to study; she earned an M.A. in Design at Central St. Martin’s School of Design. Publishing her thesis felt more like a beginning than an end and part of the research formed initiated the start of AlternativePhotography.com in 2000. The website still maintains its origins as a source of information and research for alternative photographic processes, representing almost 400 artists. Malin actively manages the expansion of the site as editor and created World Anthotype Day and facilitates events such as the Anna Atkins tribute event. She researches alternative photographic processes, makes her own prints and runs workshops. Malin has also worked professionally with big media names like Time magazine and CNBC Europe.

Malin is the co-author of Blueprint to cyanotypes and From pinhole to print, the editor of the alternative photography art book Alternative Photography: Art and Artists, Edition I representing 115 artists working in alternative photographic processes, and the author of: Blueprint to cyanotypes – Exploring a historical alternative photographic process,  a beginner’s book on cyanotypes’; Anthotypes – Explore the darkroom in your garden and make photographs using plants, which is the only book dedicated to the anthotype process; Anthotype Emulsions, Volume 1 and 2 which contain the anthotype research of artists from World Anthotype Day; and creator of two notebooks, Anthotype notes – Document your anthotype process and Cyanotype notes – Document your cyanotype process.

She has a strong interest in all alternative processes. Malin now lives and works in Stockholm, Sweden with her two sons, Maximillian and Ruben.
