A small selection of images chosen from the over 100 contained in my unique book I/I, created in 2018, has now given birth to h o c v i d e n s, a limited edition of 22 copies.
Single moments of everyday life, represented by details and simple subjects, are taken away from time and their transience.
h o c v i d e n s includes a series of images taken between 2016 and 2018, which find visual concreteness in this form. The shot is revealed in the moment when a detail of reality emerges, evoking strong feelings and unconscious reflections. The instant manifests itself in intimate daily solitude, through observation and attention to the reality that surrounds us; a cell phone, used for all the shots, reveals itself as an immediate device that acts as a visual and visible, portable diary. Time is impressed on the surface, its visibility is measured through suspension, which fluctuates and leaves its mark. The union of those fragments generates a tale of visual poetry. The skin of reality.
