On October 24 in Cavaillon, discover as a family the beginnings of photography with the pinhole camera, a device without optics that allows you to capture light and create an image.
With L’appareil photographique à sténopé, les familles sont invitées à découvrir et expérimenter les premiers principes de la photographie.
The pinhole is a camera without optics, which works thanks to a small hole of small diameter and photo paper.
A simple and fascinating artistic practice for understanding how light can be captured as an image.
The pinhole works through a tiny opening that lets light in.
Light impresses a sensitive surface, making it possible to create a photographic image.
After shooting, participants discover the stages of photo development.
After understanding the principle of the pinhole, participants will be able to experiment with shooting and observe how light becomes an image.
The workshop continues with an ephemeral photo laboratory, to develop the photos taken during the session.
A concrete and fun way to understand the entire chain of photographic creation, from light to printing.
