The term camera obscura literally means ‘darkened chamber’ in Latin. These optical devices collect light through a lens and project an image of the surroundings on a piece of ground glass, producing a primitive form of virtual reality. Over the centuries, camera obscuras provided a popular form of entertainment and functioned as drafting tools for artists. The idea and design of this device eventually lead to the invention of camera-based photography. In this two-day workshop, each participant will assemble their own camera from a kit and personalize it with decorative and book cloth. Lecture topics will include the history of this device and its relevance to the history of art. The last half of the second day will be spent using the device to create Harry Gottlieb.
