Fovea

As the world of photography draws closer to becoming exclusively digital, it is always pleasant to remember the world of Diana cameras from the 1960s. Pre-Holga, pre-Lomo, these cameras captured a world that was fuzzy, blurry, and astigmatic. A world that now seems to have vanished—or has it?

The Diana offers images that captured mood and environment in a way that could not be captured by the perfection of the Hasselblad optics. With the Diana, I could walk out into a salt water environment, be up to my chest in the water, and easily capture nostalgic, metaphorical, and romantic images that more high tech equipment would not allow.

Fovea can be arranged as a site-specific installation, in any configuration. More Diana photographs can also be taken on assignment, in a location of the commissioner’s choosing.
