Since its invention, photography has taken the role of being the bearer of truth. Its ability of realistic reproduction was seen to be diabolic in nature and mesmerised the masses. The shift to society's understanding of reality through images was stronger than ever. But what sort of image is produced through a little hole on the wall of camera obscura? What sort of reality do we recognise in it?
Or to put it differently; what sort of reality do these images produce in society and to what extend can we trust our own eyes?

Vasja Nagy  (Postojna, 1972) is a curator and art critic working and writing predominantly in the field photography.
