Viagem em Pespectiva

 2013

video-instalation, author publication, photography, conceptual






This work presents a photography record of a car trip in Serra da Arrábida.
In ten moments, it shows the right and left landscape perspectives of each of the recorded points.
The publication is the result of this trip.

Familiar and nostalgic, aims to preserve and to conserve this ride. 
Therefore, the book is saved in the showcase, in an attempt to make it untouchable. 
The video showing the book proposes a game of access and restriction.

It also raises the issue of the mean of the artwork: after all, is this travel 
a publication, a photography sequence, a video, a installation or all these together?
