Pacto . Un trasteo que se desvanece

Abstract

Pact aims to investigate an alternative narrative of my childhood, as a result of the disappearance of a photograph in a diary that my parents wrote for me, a fragment of their love story loss its veracity. This event triggered an investigation into the usefulness of an image to legitimate an idea of home through representation, a promise or Pact –the concept that gave name to the project– that is not fulfilled, the nostalgic memory of a family portrait that doesn’t happen to be real, the photography that disappears ends up representing the core of the fracture, and a found photography helps me present the fading of the whole narrative.
