About the Item

This chromogenic chemical photograph of the sun is mounted onto plexiglass with hanging mechanism on the back. Artist Betsy Kenyon traveled to different parts of the US, using a pinhole camera, film, and her body to draw with the sun. This is a limited edition print #1 of 6. 14" x 11" includes the white border around the image; the image itself is 10" x 10." Betsy Kenyon uses both her body and a weather-worn pinhole camera to make her Solar Drawings using the sun itself as a drawing tool. Kenyon’s body moves a rotating device to which her pinhole camera is affixed. Her camera is made of wood and bound with electrical tape to protect the film inside. There is no viewfinder and no lens on this camera and exposures are made through a pinhole pierced through a thin sheet of brass. Without a lens, exposure times are considerably longer, allowing Kenyon more time to draw with the sun onto the camera’s film negatives. Her camera is pointed at the sky, we see lens-like shapes in space, the sun as light source, as fire, as a point to circle. The symbol of the circle; eternity, continuity, a cycle.
