Pinhole
photography is a lensless method of making photographic
images. In this class we will make our own cameras from
found objects--cans or boxes or any light-tight container.
We will make negatives with photographic paper and then
learn how to make paper positives. (Students can use
film if they like but will not be able to develop it
on site.)
This
class is well suited to artists in other media (including
writers) who want to expand their image making tools,
to photographers who would like to work in a looser
and less restrictive way, or to those who would just
like to experiment with the technique. Knowledge of
photography is useful but not necessary.
Participants
may bring lens cameras to convert to pinhole and pre-made
pinhole cameras are also ok, but everyone will be expected
to make their own camera as well. This class will be
taught out of the artists studio in Provincetown.
Directions will be supplied upon registration.
