TRANS-SCALE Changing Our Frames of Reference
ICC KIDS PROGRAM 2011
What are the possibilities for photography which use neither camera nor lens? What options are there to step outside of Euclidean linear perspective, the vanishing point and angle of a picture plane? This work helps you explore such questions and see things differently than you would through a camera or telescope, using simple everyday objects, and without resorting to electrical technology.

PARALLEL CAMERA Whole View
1,900 black straws are in one box (15cmX15cmX15cm.) The 42 boxes compose this Parallel Camera. In total, 79,800 straws compose a TV-like-monitor showing an elevation of a set of objects.

PARALLEL CAMERA, detail
Rays reflected on this pink frog doll run parallel through the straws and projected to a translucent plane in front of the box. In this way, the frog looks larger when you look at it through this parallel camera.

Workshop
During the workshop attached to the exhibition, elementary school kids construct a parallel camera. "Don't I need to put a battery?" was the question by one of kids participating in the workshop.
