What does the impact of climate change look like? Who feels the results of our exploitation of the planet we all live on?
© Rune Eraker, Honduras, 2009
Inocente Gomez, a farmer in Jesus de Otoro, despairs over a harvest that once again looks as though it will fail.
"Before, we could tell you the exact days when the rain would come," he says. "In the past 5-6 years, it hasn't been possible to predict when the rains will come.
Changes in the rain patterns have time and again resulted in the maize failing to mature for harvest."
A history of photography
The exhibition gives an acquaintance with the pre-photographic technologies where the idea of an image was created, then moves to the enormous breadth of experimentation and research that has led all the way to current digital images.
