The fascination with capturing the light

Stenopeia. It is almost a clumsiness that collides with the flow of words, more than the denomination of the imaging. It's like a goat's hare, one of those chemical jaws. Stearic acid. Stenopeic chamber. Similar. However, it represents a simple concept, a narrow hole and, ultimately, the magic that photography had at its origin: capturing the light. Hold the light in a box and project it on photographic paper in the cell to make it paint. It can be anything that dark box. For example, the canning can. It's the same for the one who practices this salt pepper. It's almost zero. And that insignificance is enough to make an instrument tailor-made and fascinating. You don't even need glasses. Not even a button to press.

As much as the possession of the whole process, the aesthetic generated through the stenopeica seduces the photographer. This was recognized by Nagore Legarreta, author of the photographic poetry book Edipotoa (Banizu nizu, 2012). And starting to belittle that aesthetic, the textures of the images, the strong contrasts in black and white, the stains and stains that appear, and the marks, that kind of temporary filter that it applies to model the portraits as if they were antiquated.

ABEL BOURGEOIS, Baigorri's natural, has been interested in the graphic arts, the serigraphy, the deepening, the procedures related to the printing, as well. He's an artist. He's also a researcher. It has recently been seduced by the form of the stenopeic, although it recognizes that it has been discovered almost by chance. Along with painter Josette Dacosta, she has exposed the amazing panorama of San Juan de Pie de Puerto, in the room that the painter has in the capital of Baja Navarra, under the title Two views, open until October 27, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturdays and Sundays, from 15 to 19

hours. GUILHEM SENGES Lover of daring themes that popular landscapes can resort to the plastic inventions of French Guilhem Senges (Orléans, 1973). Your imagination has no limits, blends everything and everything from machineries that have become stenopee or dark camera, never in the old camper. In the process of creating each image, each step becomes a work of art as such. He also makes sculptures or decorates that are necessary for their integration into photography. Surreal images that combine result, humor, rock and roll, sex or politics. Fireworks have been in the Contraluz gallery of Pamplona/Iruña, where they have been exposed.
