About this Item

Title

  • Fotografia documental (conceitual) : repensando fronteiras

Summary

  • "This study presents a descriptive report of an art based research that selects photography as a medium to investigate the theme of "displacement" and its potential visual metaphors. The process resulted in two art works, the photo-series Linha. and Is there a "there" there?. The first, Linha. (line, dot), is a conceptual documentary photography work developed in the binational region between Mexico and the United States and addresses the frontier and its symbolic derivatives. Is there a "there" there? is video installation elaborated from visual experimentation with potential perspectives and sense of direction of a subject in transit. The research uses Corinne Noordenbos' conceptual documentary photography methodology where Grounded Theory is suggested as a guide for research and aesthetic choices within a cyclical and interdisciplinary research path. During the study that is located within the line of research of Languages and Technology questions about the use of the term "conceptual" in the context of documentary photography were raised. The duality between the documentary and conceptual nature of photographic images is addressed in a historical review that suggests interpretative conditions for a hybrid and diverse contemporary documentary photography. At the end the research, including visual production and theoretical reflection, reveals a living and dynamic process that opens the way to rethink frontiers between academic research and photographic practice." -- Unedited abstract from work.
