Pinhole photography, graphite drawing


The photographs and drawings in this series of 10, are fragments of life on location movie shoots in New York City. For the past six months, I have researched and followed these temporary microcosms constructed to materialize fictional narratives. The pinhole camera aims to echo the transitional time-frame inherent to movie-sets: caught between real-time and cinematic pace. The members of the crew portrayed in graphite become characters within the production narrative overlapping with that of the film being shot.
