These images were created using a film camera on a low shutter speed setting so that any movement will be captured, making the photograph blurry. This photograph shows a picture of a person dressed as a clown, they have moved whilst the picture was being taken to give this effect.
Shutter speed
Shutter speed is the length of time that the camera's shutter is open, this along with the aperture determines how much light reaches the film. A slow shutter speed will allow time for movement to be captured in the image, therefore leaving a blurred effect. A fast shutter speed will capture a sharp and clear image as it doesn't allow for movement to be captured.
Great post, what timings do you think Roni Horn used? What do you think of the pictures, in terms of colour, context, aesthetic.
