Abstract

This research has the purpose to develop a theoretical foundation concerning the Alternative Photographic process called Chlorophyll. This theoretical foundation will also summarize, in a didactic form, experimental practices. This study will be developed through the historical context of the process, research on artists who work with the Chlorophyll method, with a data collection done with experiments on different kinds of leaves, and pointing out the best practices for better Chlorophyll results.
