The 7th Day
A global pinhole camera art project using the Camera Obscura
The 7th Day is an international art project centered around analog photography with the pinhole camera and the Camera Obscura. Over 12,000 people from around the world have already taken part, creating their own long-exposure photograph using nothing more than a simple pinhole camera — no digital technology, no lens required.
Each image becomes part of a growing archive that has been collecting photographs from different countries, perspectives, and realities for more than ten years. Using only light, time, and a tiny hole, participants document their surroundings in a slow and mindful way.
