non-silver photogram? or silver b/w paper?



Thanks for the feedback.  The photogram needs to be large enough for a 
figure, and that will be white, everything else needs to be black.

is there any non-silver way to do this?

and if the only way to go is silver, where could i purchase b/w paper large 
enough for one?     emily.

A photogram by definition can only be the size of the object that is laid
on the paper.  If it is enlarged it is nolonger a photogram, it then becomes
an enlargement.
I have done 5x6 ft figure photograms with my self and others as subject,
on B+W paper and color paper, they were the subject of my graduate
thesis show.  I have not done them in non-silver yet.

I
have seen figure studies 6x4 ft done in Cyanotype, in art books.
But the big problem is to have the subjest black and the background
lighter , which is the oppiset of a normal photogram.
 >>i am interested in doing a photogram, approx. 5 - 6 feet by 3 or 4.
 >>in the end , i need the image to be black........

size?
