Soil Chromatography: A Photo-Chemical Exploration of the Earth 

/in /by

With Aindreas Scholz

In this workshop, you’ll experience photography in a completely new way, as it combines scientific analysis with artistic exploration.

Soil chromatography is a method used to make the properties of soil visible. By using light-sensitive chemicals from analog photography and special filter paper, soil samples are analyzed for their composition. Farmers can interpret the colors, patterns, and structures of the results to understand how healthy and fertile the soil is.

Participants are encouraged to bring their own soil samples from different locations to examine them during the course.

What to expect:

  • Introduction to the history of soil chromatography
  • Preparing the solutions
  • Creating soil extracts
  • Working with filter paper
  • Interpretation, evaluation, and discussion
