RECORDOS

O xeo, igual ca fotografía, ten o poder de facer perdurar no tempo todo o que capta, prolongando un intre. Esta prolongación é temporal, xa que as fotografías se deterioran e o xeo derrete.

Esta dobre conxelación representa o vínculo entre a fotografía, a persoa retratada e o paso do tempo. A fotografía, igual ca memoria, é a pegada dun suceso, ambas sofren a deterioración que implica o paso do tempo. Son unha fonte de recordos, cunha grande carga sentimental e emocional, coa diferencia de que a memoria os almacena e a fotografía evócaos.

Co tempo cambian os receptores e, polo tanto, a maneira de ver, de percibir, de sentir… As fotografías adquiren outro poder de evocación, precisamente porque a carga emocional do seu tempo transfórmase polo camiño.l

MEMORIES

Ice, the same as photography, has the power of making everything that it captures endure, extending every single moment. This extension is temporary since photographs get damaged just as ice melts down.

This double freeze illustrates the bond among photography, the person portrayed and the pass of time. The photograph as well as the memory is a trace of an event, both undergo a deterioration involving the pass of time. They are a source of memories with a sentimental and emotional burden but unlike photography, memory stores them up while photography evokes them.

Receivers change eventually and so does their way of perceiving, seeing, feeling…Photographs acquire another evocating power and so for that very reason the emotional burden of its time is transformed along the way.
