LOOKING AT THE MYSTERY OF NATURE

Using pinhole photography to find another gateway to reality

Pinhole photography offers a fascinating way to explore the world. It’s nothing more than a black box with a tiny hole in it. This simple technique slows us down, allowing us to see the world differently. It brings photography back to its essence of light and time.

Light passes through the small opening, projecting an inverted image onto photosensitive material inside the box. It captures passing time, preserving moments where past and present merge.

Explore the pinhole photography technique in more detail.
