2 - 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.

  • plastic viewers and B/W slides 
  • variable dimensions
