A camera obscura is, in its simplest form, a darkened room into which light enters from outside through a small hole – an image of the outside world is projected into the interior as if by magic. It is the beginning of photography, the ur-ancestor of all photographic cameras.
How does it work? All will be revealed in this workshop. Using simple materials like cardboard, tape, and tracing paper, you’ll build your own camera obscura boxes or viewing devices to observe and reinterpret details in your surroundings with fresh eyes.
You can take the camera home with you after the workshop.

Languages: English, German, Spanish
