ob•scur•a
shadowy, indistinct
the camera obscura is often considered the first camera, or at least the earliest prototype of one, sometimes called a pinhole camera. The membrane Obscura is an ode to that, a photography studio of modern ideals and retro flair.
some things in our world live in the grey, the shadowy, the indistinct; Membrane Studio aims to capture that obscura in a camera lens.
when looking into a camera obscura, your image is turned on it's head, skewed and upside down.
membrane obscura takes that which is considered skewed and upside down and shows that it's been right side up all along.
by and for misfits, outcasts, nonconformists, and freaks.
whatever kind of weirdo you are, Membrane Studio is for you, an alternative choice for your alternative self.
we're here for all you square pegs in round pinhole cameras.
