Overview

This book is composed of sixteen monumental photographs, reproduced according to scale and joined together, one after another, to form a great endless image. The photograms are the result of an eight-year process of acquiring a particular technique and grammar. They are spectacular negative images that oscillate between fiction and traces of reality, between presence and absence. This visual exploration recovers one of the early photographic procedures –the photogram–, which, through a process of abandoning cultural assumptions, is used as a support to represent a distinct horizontal link with what surrounds us, with nature understood as subject and with primordial culture understand as an equal. The images have been produced with rolls of light-sensitive paper thirty meters long, placed in direct contact with nature, embracing the Amazon rainforest, containing the waves of the Pacific Ocean, and serving as a support for members of Andean communities and dance groups, captured close up, exposed to the lightning bolts of a tropical storm, to the light of the full moon, or to a hand-held flash. All of this is framed within a strategy of deliberate loss of control of the process, in which authorship is transformed into a medium that allows for the appearance of this new visual universe. 18 images
