"photogram"の定義と意味

What is a "photogram"?

A photogram is a photographic image created without a camera by placing objects directly onto light-sensitive paper and then exposing it to light. The areas of the paper that are covered by objects remain white, while the uncovered areas darken when exposed to light. This technique produces unique, silhouette-like images that reveal the shapes and textures of the objects used. Photograms are often used in experimental and artistic photography to create abstract or visually striking compositions.
