Single point field

The project aims, by the decision to incorporate archive images, a reflective attitude about the nature of the photographic medium, towards an essentialization of it, speculating on the opposites that emerge from this approach. Between a deliberate taxonomic character in the presentation of film negatives, archive photographs, and the presumption that any image succession inevitably leads to a narrative one, between showing with alleged objectivity and the subjectivity inherent in the decision to conceal, in the context of an extreme proliferation of images, adding implies an act of caution. The title of the publication, as well as the guidelines, is on page 3.  The following sequence can be read in any direction, be it concerning one’s position in space. At best, one should view it as an implosion, from the field to the point, from sequence to its implosion, the images are suspended, in the format of the book, just before the imagined critical moment in which they converge to a single point.
