Event overview
Camera obscura allows you to draw a companion using simple marker pens.
ince 2004, Jonathan Polkest’s - Scenography Technician in the Department of Theatre & Performance - Draw Me booth has been appearing in public spaces across the country.
Originating in Cornwall, the booth is a camera obscura that allows people of all abilities, ages and backgrounds to draw a companion using simple marker pens.
Although this free event is simple and fun to use, it is more than just a drawing that is produced, the drawer generally captures the personality of the subject, often leading to a deeper understanding of the relationship between subject and image maker. The pictures are attached to surfaces in the immediate vicinity to create an instant portrait gallery. People can then collect their portrait and keep.
