Obscura
Presenting culture through the lens of the people.Â
A place for preserving & reflecting on our past and building our future through creative arts.
Photography started with a simple device known today as the camera obscura - Latin (dark chamber)
A camera obscura is an empty room without light but for a small pinhole in one wall, the light that comes through that pinhole projects a scene from outside on the opposite wall.Â

“Psychology tends to be more critical of mirrors which represent the barrier betweenÂ
conscious and unconscious and therefore, by looking deep into a mirror, we look deep
 inside ourselves in a conscious way, following a thoughts process.”
