2011–2012 Linz (AT)
pinhole photography
Cars like empty metal containers
traffic lights are changing for nobody
the city and its streets are breathing
lying in the rain
The pinhole photography is mentioned the first time in 1856. Based on this old method I build my cameras out of candy boxes and film cartridges. Pinhole cameras don’t have any lens, only a very thin hole.
Photos taken with these candy boxes have exposure time between 20 seconds and 2 weeks.
The most of the photos are taken during night time with very long exposure
time, 2–6 hours. Photos taken on day time are shot with two pins, like
double exposure at once.
Cameras were left on the streets or traffic poles, taped on the surface. Some of them disappeared by the human nature, but the most of them stayed to capture the urban memory.
