TS Dower is a printmaker and photographer from Baltimore, still on Piscataway land.

Alongside a computer science background, I formally studied theatrical costume, sound, and lighting design at University of Maryland, Baltimore County. As an artist, designing for theater in an era of sudden digitization influenced choices in contemporary digital and obsolete analog media, sparking a love of alternative photographic processes. Today I primarily work with cyanotype, native and invasive flora, discarded objects, abandoned places, and toy and vintage film cameras, mixing precise technical and disorted dreamlike elements to pose questions about automation, repeatability, sustainability, and our human place in nature.

A member of the Extinct Flightless Arts Collective, I have run several outdoor workshops in cyanotype printing for children and adults up and down the US East Coast, and could be convinced to do it again.
