Abstract(s)
O meu projecto final procura explorar a materialização da fotografia e a sua manipulação, na criação de imagens relegando a máquina fotográfica para segundo plano. Recorrendo ao uso da fotografia instântanea, nomeadamente Polaroids, vão-se executando várias experimentações de manipulação de imagem, que inferem uma característica material às imagens e de representação de passagem de tempo e memória, criando um corpo de trabalho auto-representativo, onde se mistura a fotografia abstracta e representativa. O trabalho é inspirado na prática artística de Lucas Samaras em “Photo-Transformation” (1973-76) e nas metodologias de Koichiro Kojima, Daido Moriyama e Daisuke Yokota e ainda na fotografia Japonesa de autor, onde se cria uma relação entre observador (“próprio”) e observado (“outro”) inserindo o próprio fotógrafo no cenário da fotografia de modo a criar uma narrativa a partir da vida privada do mesmo.
My final project seeks to explore the materialization of photography and its manipulation, the criation of images relegating the photografic camera. Using instant photography, essencially Polaroids, a series of image manipulation experiments are executed, in order to infer a material character to the images and to represent the passage of time and memory, creating a self representative body of work, where both abstract and representative images are put together. The work is inspired on Lucas Samaras’s artistic practices in “Photo-Transformation” (1973-76), on Koichiro Kojima, Daido Moriyama and Daisuke Yokota’s work methodologies and also on Japanese authoral photography, where a relationship between watcher (“self”) and watched (“other”) is created, by inserting the photographer him/herself inside the picture’s scenery in such a manner as to create a narrative from the photographer’s private life.
