Live in black and white
There are people who dream in colors, others we do in black and white. Each blink is an instantly captured photograph. Thus, the open eyes capture an image and the heart reveals it, then it disappears. Technology, however, has allowed us to keep thah blink over time.
In the absence of color, the clock stops and the photo no longer belongs to a specific time or place. So it’s just a click, a breath, a sigh among people. It is only a small and minimal moment, like a piece of memory snatched away from the passage of history. Photography is a constant search for something that we don’t know where it is or when it will appear. Whether simple or fantastic, the important thing is that it be beautiful. Like the beauty of a precise and unrepeatable moment, like the honesty of a gesture or the mystery of a symbol or the prolongation of frozen movement: a thoughtful face, a steps going away, a back that leaves.
About The Collection
The following photographs were taken between the social protests in Santiago de Chile and my extensive walks through Mexico City during the last year.
