Mieko Tadokoro's Pinhole Photography in Paris

     My meeting with Pinhole Photography began when I saw the images of a monography I bought by chance in Paris.

     I was enchanted by strange charms produced by "Camera Obscura", a primitive apparatus of imagery with a different optics from a lens and I myself have become an artist of "making" photography.

     The works shown here are monuments and show-windows all taken in Paris with my handmade camera obscura. In com- memoration of the "Franch Year in Japan" I used the French made printing paper.
