In the series
Structures, I explore the visual form of my subjects, their
patterns and shapes and the variety of ways they can be
photographed. I carefully select simple subjects that are structural
in nature and interpret those using handmade camerae obscurae
(pinhole cameras). I maximize their aesthetic interest by altering
the cameraĆs film plane and angles of view. When viewed through the
cameraĆs eye, elements that are symmetrical become asymmetrical;
straight lines bend; normal illusions of depth and distance become
illusive and dreamlike. --Allen C. Benson 2007
