Camera Obscura: Large format lensless analogue photography

 

Silver gelatine prints, 6 in a series of 24, 142cm wide a variable heights.

To remove the lens is to see without eyes.

Lenses create distorted representations of three dimensional scenes by rendering them onto two dimensional surfaces. The vanishing point provides us with a point of reference, useful for spatial perception and for understanding our relationship with the environment. However, this phenomenon doesn't exist other than as a proxy for how we translate perception into representations of what we believe to be real.
