Where do the Photolatente pictures come from?
The shots used to impress Photolatente papers are taken by a wide variety of people.

The only pre-requisite is to have attended at least one "Photolatente meeting". During this meeting, if they decide to participate in the project, O. Molina lends them an unexposed roll of film.

Participants are given total freedom regarding technique, subject and content of what they shoot. After exposing the roll of film, the participant returns it to Oscar Molina.

The roll goes to form part of a group of anonymous rolls, that lack all information as to their contents. These are therefore completely unknown to the author, publisher and sponsors of the project.

The shots in the rolls are used randomly to imprint photosensitive papers which, in turn, will be inserted in latent state into a photolatente envelope.

The names of participants remain unknown. When participants return the roll of film they give up all rights to the images it contains.
