- Artist Statement
- Betsy Kenyon uses 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 and aimed skyward. Her camera is made of wood and bound with electrical tape protecting 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.
