Body & Natural light – Richard Learoyd

From The Fraenkel Gallery:

“Richard Learoyd’s images are made with one of the most antiquarian processes: the camera obscura… Leayroyd has created a room-sized camera in which the photographic paper is exposed. The subject – often a person, sometimes a still life – is in the adjacent room, separated by a lens. Light falling on the subject is directly focused on the photographic paper without an interposing film negative. The result is an entirely grainless image. The overall sense of these larger-than-life images redefines the photographic illusion.”
