WORKSHOP

PINHOLE

Photographs from the improvised pinhole camera workshop by Giorgos Gerontides at the 3rd SSC of Thessaloniki in October 2019. Risograph print Keda press.

- Thirty seconds for a photograph? An entire minute?

- Yes, that is how long it takes for an improvised camera to capture a photograph, to let the light through the tiny hole of the shutter (a piece of plastic pierced with a hot needle) and burn the light onto the photosensitive printing paper.

- How will the photo emerge? Will it be a regular photo? Will it illustrate us clearly?

- Black and white for sure, and fuzzy, for the rest we are not certain until we develop them.

In the practical part of the workshop, the participants came into contact with the basic principles of optics that were necessary for the production of our own camera. They showed great interest in the way such a simple device can operate and capture photos. The main topics of the project were the rhythm and life in the prison school.
