Wikiland 23 June 2017 / Sunny 16 Rule

The third part of the project is set in 2017 when Swedish Prosecutor Marianne Ny dropped the investigation into rape and applied to revoke the European arrest warrant. On Swedish Midsummer, 23 June 2017, the brightest day of the year, Källström-Fäldt, again among few invited photographers, visited Assange in the Embassy of Ecuador in London, equipped with analogue medium format cameras and a few rolls of film. In accordance with the Sunny 16 Rule which is a method in photography of estimating correct daylight without a light meter, they took ten portraits of Assange. However, as the light conditions in the room were so poor, the portraits turned out to be completely dark. The last frame was used with a flash and the resulting image only revealed Assange’s silhouette. Once again, his portrait remains elusive.
