Horizon, 2023

This is the 3rd of Brans's solargraphy projects. This one has an exposure time of eight days. Location is the Coloneltower in Maastricht, april 2021. The result of the project is the tapistery. I started making solargraphs with homemade pinhole cameras in 2020. In the meantime I have produced a great amount of images. Some of which I have turned into prints. But I found the images lack materiality. I started looking for something different expecting to find that in translating them into large weavings. Together with the Textiellab of the Textielmuseum in Tilburg I have researched how to translate these images into tapestries. Thereby looking for qualities as ‘landscape-like’ and depth.
