CYLINDRICAL PINHOLE CAMERA
I live sacred geometry, sculpture, and Buckminster Fuller. I design and build original pinhole cameras as a playground to explore all three. It is my belief that art is the documentation of creative process. It is a sea of depth and layers, always begging to be swam.
*If ever the internet was the wrong place to present something, this is it.
This camera produces paper negatives that are 20" tall by 7-10' wide. Seeing the scrolls laid out in person is an experience and I am happy to share with the curious and inspired. Until then enjoy their digital offspring.
The first test of the camera. Full image of Hands negative and positive.
This image shows the precise focus of the pinhole camera.
4'x4'x4' Using this camera is a performance piece in itself. It takes 30mins to load in complete darkness and is then carried on back to the location. Exposures range from 10mins-30mins depending on conditions. It is constructed of aluminum, cardboard, wood, and tape. A lot of tape. |
