re_photo
With the digitalisation of photography, the manipulation of the photograph became way more versatile and accesible. If, until that point, photography was the ultimate document of truth, the only and the most powerful means of confirming that something has been, after that, all these ideas were put into question. Nowadays, photography’s vericity is fragile.
re_photo is an experimental and conceptual project that questions digital photography as an objective means of representation.
The works are studying ephemeral photographs – the ones that are displayed on a monitor, not created using pigment, but with pixels. Some of the works allow you to identify the original photograph, while others deconstruct it and create whole new unidentifiable abstractions.
Is this a reality that we see? Is it pixels? A confirmation of what has been or a new, fictional reality?
