Pinhole Photography
My fascination with pinhole photography began as an exploration for my thesis. The process was a way to forcibly see slowly and record my thesis experiments as such. Then it became a more independent investigation as I became intrigued by the process of making cameras, exposing, and developing; by the relationships between camera, photograph, and environment; and how the photo that is created is an index of its environment at the particular moment, or moments, of exposure.
Some photos, though technically unsuccessful with blurred apertures, unfocused image, or incorrect exposure, I include in the collection because for me a successful pinhole photograph isn't a 'picture perfect' image but a full document of the relationship between light, camera, and photographer.
