1. VISIONARIES | 2002

For this work I brought characters from family stories and legends into the ordinary world of viewers by recollecting and reproducing black and white slides of old photographs from a variety of sources: from the earliest photography studios of Brazilian portrait artists all the way through to amateur images from the start of the twentieth century.

• series: three installations with 225 viewers each + 1 AP
• plastic viewers and B/W slides
• variable dimensions
• OTHER EXHIBITIONS: “Achados e perdidos,” Sesc Pinheiros, São Paulo, Brazil / “Vuelvo al Sur,” L’Éte Photographique, Centre de Photographie de Lectoure, France / “Trajetórias 4,” Fundação Joaquim Nabuco, Recife, Brazil
