  • Men's Room

    Cornwall, England 1986

    Pinhole

    A4

    Study in time and space utilizing multiple pinhole exposures on one singal negative. The pinhole camera has no viewfinder and so the additional enjoyment for me is all in the harzard of chance. Men's Room appears out of an architecturally mixed up space of light, windows and corridor.

  • How the West was won?

    Coney Island, NYC, USA 1989

    Pinhole Photography

    A3

    Study in time and space utilizing two separate pinhole exposures on one singal negative. The old tattered illusions of funfare at Coney Island created an electric atmosphere against the azure sky as they sank into an imaginary sunset of faded glories. The pinhole camera has no viewfinder and so the additional enjoyment for me is all in the harzard of chance.

  • Brooklyn Muse

    Broklyn, NYC, USA 1988

    Pinhole photography, cylindrical camera.

    A3

    Study in time and space utilizing six separate pinhole exposures on one singal negative. The images are unified due to the distortions caused by the cylindrical shape of the negative - function dictating form. The pinhole camera has no viewfinder and so the additional enjoyment for me is all in the harzard of chance.
