A disorganisation of elements and forms from which a constellation of formal relationships comes to life, in which the sensitive and intelligent gaze moves around, finding the postures necessary for the realisation of a representation that eschews meaning to inhabit the sense.
Expressed with simplicity, the work of this author looks at the traces produced by everyday life, finding in this vital and spontaneous character the element necessary to produce a collection of images capable of portraying a sense of social, cultural and political disorientation and the way in which this falls on the intimacy of each of us.
A long, dense essay accompanies the images, revealing a growing concern for the state of things. A text that says and goes through everything: hunger, fasting, slavery, mourning, intimacy, painting, poetry and the history of photography – the limit of the photographic itself which can say up to a certain point.
The text and the photographic sequences are interspersed with an anonymous 18th century handwritten cookbook from Cambridge. The interference of this between the essay and the images organises a short-circuit between words and images through which we can intuit the possibility of a new way of seeing and knowing everyday places and events. A reorganisation of experience and narration that today more than ever seems to be necessary to emerge from what many perceive as a New Dark Age.
