Through the PInhole, Vol 1
Cody S. Brothers
26 May - 10 Jul 2022
Through the Pinhole, Vol 1 is the first exhibit of local photographer Cody S. Brothers' decades long work with a pinhole camera.
Primarily focused with infrared film, he was initially intrigued by the idea of the long exposure times a pinhole camera could offer if modified to shoot infrared film. The lengthy exposure times he felt would allow him to capture imagery more associated with time and feel, while setting up his lens-based equipment for more precision documentation. Taken in by the “Dream State” feel and quality of the imagery, he was immediately thrilled by the results.
In 2012, Brothers set out on a project “Through the Pinhole 2012”, to capture at least one pinhole image every day for the entire year. In doing so he developed a thorough familiarity with the camera and the exposure times needed for just about every kind of environment, light, and situation. While in New York City for an exhibition, and having to fulfill his daily image requirements, he witnessed a completely different form of street photography could be achieved. Hence, the birth of another project “NYC Through the Pinhole”.
The images in this exhibit are comprised of Brothers' personal favorites from his multiple projects and photographic journeys throughout the last decade.
