The precursor to photography, the Camera Obscura dates back to the ancient Greeks. It is a way of projecting an image through a lens onto a surface. In this workshop each participant will create their own handheld Camera Obscura, learning about the inside workings of a camera and the human eye in the process.

Led by photographer Peter Lower.
