Join Santa Fe educator, photographer and camera obscura developer Jackie Mathey for a family workshop on building a take-home tabletop camera obscura that can be used as drawing aids. Explore how light moves and images are formed. Travel in your imagination to the age of the Renaissance where devices like these were used by artists. It’s free, but class size is limited; make a reservation by calling 505-476-5087.
Mathey has taught at the Santa Fe Photo Workshops and started a photography department at a local high school based solely on pinhole photography. So inspired by the camera obscura and the ethereal images produced by pinhole photography, she started camp obscura, a week-long course in pinhole photography, committed to keeping film alive in an ever-increasing digital world.
This is a special class developed as part of the exhibition Poetics of Light: Pinhole Photography.
