‘POETICS of Light’ spans eight decades of pinhole photography, representing the work of more than 150 artists across multiple genres.
The international exhibition receives its European premiere at the National Science and Media Museum today, showing what can be achieved using primitive photographic techniques of exposing a piece of film using light travelling through a small hole in a box.
It features images from the Pinhole Resource Collection, amassed by co-curators Eric Renner and Nancy Spenner in San Lorenzo, in New Mexico’s Mimbres Valley.
And there are also pinhole images by members of the Bradford Photographic Society and photography students from the Bradford School of Art, part of Bradford College, both of which took to the city’s streets to capture images for the exhibit.
