Tomorrow

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.

Undefined Memory (2012) – exp. 2 weeks by Donau. I left two containers taped on a pole by the path, one survived untouched.


Many candy boxes with a taped metal piece on them.
Pinhole cameras made out of film cartridges, a chips can and candy boxes.

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.
