The section Sténopé (Pinhole) features recent analogue photography projects, using traditional chemical based processes. It includes portraits taken using the #pinholebeercan a DIY camera made from an up-cycled beer can. There are also portraits produced using a caravan that was converted into a camera and mobile darkroom. All of the projects have involved working collaboratively with collectives, project spaces and local residents, providing a means for an inclusive creative experience. If you have a project that you would like to discuss email ben@bnathan.co.uk
