Exposed Ilford Multigrade IV Photographic Paper, mounted in polished brass frame with painted black bituminous roofing underlay paper, signed Benji Hartfield and dated with white graphite behind glass pane

16 x 11 x 5cm

82-day exposure recorded through the pinhole lens of my cylindrical tin camera made out of an old Chelsea Sugar Golden Syrup can, which has been recording the solar movement over time across the sky. I developed the recording, fixed then manifested the exposed paper into this artwork; titled '82 cycles of the sun arching above John and Janet’s house' (2020)
