Public Story
Shadow of the self
The idea behind this project is the notion of memory and past as a shadow of each one of us.
Every event in our lives is attached to us and is an intrinsically important part of who we are.
Two negatives, each one from a different photography, a single salt print produced with both of the negatives. Two slices of time frozen in a single layer of silver nitrate. Two events separated in the time for years or maybe just seconds but united in a piece of paper as a metaphor of how each one of us is a set of layer glued by our experiences through the life.
It is also a display of how proud I'm of be a mixture of races and cultural lores: From the Celtic and European roots of my dad to the beautiful Amerindian and African roots of my mom.
