Cyanotype was invented in the 1840's. It was used to print photos in books. The process consists of painting a material with a UV sensitive chemical solution and then placing a negative on the material. The material is then exposed to either sunlight or UV light, and the pieces exposed to light turn blue.
The first two pictures are by Nancy Breslin. Both are printed on silk. Cyanotype can be used on a variety of materials, and making usable things out of cloth cyanotype prints seems like an obvious solution.
The middle two pictures are by Elizabeth Graves. They are a part of her "Foliage in Blue" series, all of which are cyanotypes.
The last two pictures are by Katerina Bukolska. They are both printed on glass; the first one was probably treated with a toner to get the green color.
