His vision was simple and clear: to make the technique of pinhole photography accessible to everyone.<br data-start=\"289\" data-end=\"292\" \/>No complicated technology. No prior photographic knowledge. No lenses or exposure meters.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"383\" data-end=\"667\">Instead: an old, recycled film canister, a tiny hole, a piece of light-sensitive photographic paper. And suddenly anyone, regardless of age or experience, can create an analog photograph. A photo that doesn\u2019t appear in seconds, but emerges slowly, over many days, weeks, or even months.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"669\" data-end=\"880\">Since 2018, Przemek and his son Patrick Zajfert have continued the project together. Two generations, united by a shared passion: analog photography, slow observation, and the poetic interplay of light and time.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"882\" data-end=\"1040\"><strong data-start=\"882\" data-end=\"897\">The 7th Day<\/strong> has grown into a participatory art project with over 12,000 participants worldwide. And it continues to grow\u2014camera by camera, image by image.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1042\" data-end=\"1135\">We thank all participants who make it possible to carry this project forward year after year.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"1545\" data-end=\"1548\" \/>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-658613165 > .col-inner {\n  margin: 0px 0px -8% 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1651384703\" class=\"col hide-for-medium medium-2 small-12 large-2\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1574660828\" class=\"col medium-8 small-12 large-8\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<h3>TEDx und The 7th Day<\/h3>\n<div class=\"video video-fit mb\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Der 7.

In 1981, Przemek was drafted into military service, where he worked as a regiment photographer. Increasing political repression under the communist regime eventually led him to flee. Since 1985, he has lived and worked as a freelance light and photo artist in Stuttgart, Germany.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1509\" data-end=\"1839\">For over two decades, Przemek traveled the world with a mobile darkroom\u2014his large black box\u2014and the simplest pinhole cameras. This camera obscura served as a gallery, creative studio, and occasionally even as a sleeping space. The images created on these journeys reflect his artistic exploration of time, transience, and silence.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1841\" data-end=\"1974\"><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/zajfert.de\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\" data-start=\"1843\" data-end=\"1891\">Przemek Zajfert\u2019s website<\/a><br data-start=\"1891\" data-end=\"1894\" \/><a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/www.camera-obscura-1-inf.net\/index.html\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\" data-start=\"1896\" data-end=\"1974\">Camera Obscura 1-inf project<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-1221314756 > .col-inner {\n  margin: 0px 0px -15% 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-709394869\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<h2 data-start=\"1981\" data-end=\"2382\"><span style=\"font-size: 80%;\">Patrick Zajfert<\/span><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1981\" data-end=\"2382\">Patrick Zajfert grew up immersed in photography\u2014between the darkroom, camera gear, and the creative life of his father.

After completing his photography studies at the University of Applied Sciences in Dortmund, he continued to develop his own visual language.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2384\" data-end=\"2441\"><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/patrickzajfert.de\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\" data-start=\"2386\" data-end=\"2441\">Patrick Zajfert\u2019s website<\/a><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1572\" data-end=\"1969\">\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1114936552\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1095869517\" class=\"col hide-for-medium medium-2 small-12 large-2\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-780575513\" class=\"col medium-8 small-12 large-8\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_276447681\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/the-7th-day.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/patrick-und-przemek-zajfert-camera-obscura-muenchen.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Przemek und Patrick Zajfert auf einem Bild.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the-7th-day.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/patrick-und-przemek-zajfert-camera-obscura-muenchen.webp 1080w, https:\/\/the-7th-day.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/patrick-und-przemek-zajfert-camera-obscura-muenchen-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/the-7th-day.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/patrick-und-przemek-zajfert-camera-obscura-muenchen-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/the-7th-day.de\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/patrick-und-przemek-zajfert-camera-obscura-muenchen-510x340.webp 510w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_276447681 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-311809046\" class=\"col medium-2 small-12 large-2\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1039323732 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n  padding-bottom: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3509","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.7 -
