Cyanotype
Exposure testing, image preparation, toning methods and workshop-ready processes.
Where ideas are tested.
Fusion Studio is built around the belief that creative growth often begins with curiosity rather than certainty.
It is a space for experimentation, exploration and learning through making. Questions are welcomed, ideas can be tested, mistakes are part of the process, and unexpected outcomes are often the most valuable.
This is where ideas are tested before they become workshops, artworks, resources, publications or community projects.
Printmaking
Relief, drypoint, registration systems, recycled materials and accessible print processes.
Artist Books
Zines, folded structures, small-run publishing and ways of turning ideas into tangible form.
Digital + Making
Laser-cut tests, digital media, image transfer, layout, design and hybrid workflows.
Current projects.
Studio projects are developed through testing, adapting, documenting and refining. The aim is to create work, workshops and resources that are practical, generous, inclusive and satisfying for different levels of creative experience.
Current work includes cyanotype exposure and toning, Southern Print Forge workshop development, artist books, small-run publishing, laser-cut relief blocks, gel plate image transfer and print registration systems.
The studio is less about one fixed medium and more about what can happen when creative processes are allowed to meet.
Creativity does not always require a plan. Sometimes it begins with permission to explore.
Workshop Development
Cyanotype, print foundations, zines, drawing, digital design and educator PD.
Equipment
UV exposure, laser cutting, A3 colour printing, bookbinding tools and printmaking materials.
Process Notes
A developing record of experiments, tests, workshop prototypes and creative decisions.
In Progress
One test, one workshop, one project and one useful piece of creative infrastructure at a time.
Research + enquiry.
The studio is also a place for practice-led enquiry: testing ideas through making, reflecting on process, and exploring how creative work can support learning, belonging, confidence and regional access.
Current areas of interest include analogue and digital process, print culture, artist books, visual storytelling, creative education, neurodiversity and community-based learning.
The studio is a practical research space: a place where making, thinking, teaching and community can intersect.
Testing
Material trials, process experiments, proofs, failures, adjustments and discoveries.
Documenting
Notes, images, samples and reflections that help turn process into learning.
Building
Workshop systems, resources, creative infrastructure and repeatable teaching processes.
Sharing
Creative outcomes that become workshops, artworks, publications or shelf-ready pieces.
