“As cinematographers, we traditionally tell stories within a rectangular or square, but what if our canvas was round? Join us to explore the relationship between the stories we convey and the shape of the world we choose to present them in, with a series of 'Tondoscope' photographs from a diverse group of visual artists.”
— Peter E Riches
Definition of Tondo: A circular painting or relief.
A Tondoscope is a circular frame ratio, that to date has only been used in one feature film Lucifer (2014), but circular art has been around since the 15th century.
