Panopaintings by Richard Rathe :: Updated March 2023

Panopainting (verb, noun) - Panoramic photographs captured in real-time with unpredictable, non-deterministic distortions due to movement of the camera (and sometimes the subject). The aesthetic value of these images depends on the camera's "stitching" algorithm and the physical "brush stroke" performed by the photographer. A degree of "glitching" is expected and often leads to cubist or impressionistic effects. Each exposure is unique due to inevitable variation in subject and technique.
