4m² pin hole camera project starts on Saturday at Laukontori, Tampere


4m² -project is a pinhole camera built by four Fine Art students. A year ago the camera turned Ruoholahdentori marketplace upside down in Helsinki.

The shifting, changing, dimming and brightening sunlight paints the outside world on the inner walls of the camera. The camera doesn’t record anything, the only way to experience it is to step inside.
