My Word, photography, 2010
Me, Boskizzi, maker of “virtual” worlds, I let you share in my faces, realized with a self-timer technique as an antidote to the “reality” and the so-called “normality”. These pictures, of which I am both author and subject, are not used as mean of self-knowledge, but as an alternative to it. Photography has been often used as an autobiographical narrative tool, while here is the opposite: these pictures describe abstract contents, which are inherent in the human psyche. From the symbolic universe to the phenomenal reality by a mean which really abstracts symbolic contents from the real world. Hurrah to the Virtual Humanities! |
