D Eye Y photography commission

Artists group BBKP, Nathan Birchenough, Nicholas Brown, Craig Kao, Savvas Papasavva, will present their photography commission exhibition D Eye Y at the Pump House Gallery from the 6 February 2013.

For their current participatory photography commission at the Pump House Gallery, they have been developing interactive activities based on their own discovery of non-digital photography around Battersea Park and with local residents. This culmination of their research into the manipulation of cameras and exploration of different objects that can be converted into cameras, will be an exhibition of the products of their admiration for the technology and photography filled with shared experiences with interesting characters along the way.

From tiny pictures taken by a monkey nut shell-made-camera to a self made mobile pop-up dark room for developing your own pictures, this exhibition will present the photographs taken during the duration of the project alongside cameras made from unusual objects as well as vintage broken cameras converted to such effect as to pull the film across a slender slit producing an obscured and warped effect in the images. On the ground floor will sit a functioning photo booth, created and built by the group themselves. An X marks the spot for the participant to have a go and take an image of themselves in the space. Large light boxes will form an archive displaying images created in various stages of development.

Private view: Tuesday 5 February 2013
