Fabi Futata Photography   


 

Pinhole photography has been a significant part of my photographic studies and experimentations. I like the fact that this rudimentary technique - based on the fundamentals of Photography - is able to evoke feelings of total wonder and magic. The dreamy surrealistic feel, the unexpected saturated colors, the multiple exposures, the soft focus seem to lead me to another dimension. The relationship with time is also different. Some exposures can take up to 12 minutes, trapped into a single frame.

In an attempt to investigate and play with this aesthetics, I have decided to portray my friends with a 4X5 and a 8X10 pinhole camera before the major film companies stop to produce sheets of B&W and instant film ( Polaroid has shut down already). If you are interested in being part of this project, please send me a message so we can plan a photo shoot.
