HOLGA PHOTOGRAPHY
Once I saw in a magazine holga pictures and fell in love with the process right away. When I found where to buy this toy camera, I started to shoot everything that appealed to me. The splashing colors due to light leaks revealed to me a world at the edge of reality, a world like we see in our dreams. Shooting with the holga camera turned quickly to be a joyful research that moves you away from the dull reality. Just like a therapy would bring you to a better life. Hence came the title of this work : TherapyH, where the H stands for Holga!
But what is Holga ? It is a cheap medium-format 120 film camera made all in plastic and build in China considered today as a toy camera. It was intended to provide an inexpensive mass-produced camera for the working class but its lack of quality became quickly a good mean to express photography in a surrealistic way.
