| Summary: | Das Unheimliche is part of a long trajectory of artistic and academic research that investigates the disappearance of the face in portraits and self-portraits, ratifying and exploring the concept of anti-portraits as an expression of contemporary identity fragmentation. The series, produced between 2013 and 2024, focuses on the burying and unearthing of fingerprints of photographic portraitstaken of people who are part of the artist's network of relationships. These images, which pass through different countries over the course of ten years, deconstructing themselves and becoming traces of what they once were, symbolize and represent deconstructions and reconstructions of photographic elements, as much as they represent the emotional, relational and identity mutationsthat the set of subjects and relationships that define the series undergo over the course of these ten years. Referencing Freud, the title refers to the concept of unheimliche, reflecting on the destabilization of affections and places that were once safe. The work dematerializes thephotographic and the reconstruction of relationships and identities through time and space, mixing personal and cultural experiences in a visual narrative that questions permanence, stability and migration. |
