PROLOGUE: What is the value that an image acquires past a crisis? To follow, the fifth chapter of “A WORLD OF IMAGES, THE IMAGES OF THE WORLD”, a visual itinerary envisioned by @caro16caro and @a legenissel through some of the works presented at #LOOPFair 2019, or a fragmented narrative to make sense of this time.
CHAPTER 5: It happened to many of us to go back and search for our family albums, over the quarantine; a simple way to spend some time and get over boredom, or a more precise action disclosing a certain need for longing and conjuncture with our memories and roots.
VISUAL APPENDIX: Presented at #LOOPFair 2019 by @gandy gallery (Bratislava), the video ‘Tutorial’ (2015) by Vendula Knopová @vendulaknopova discloses her layered family album. "It is the best of of my mum’s hard drive, which had to undergo appropriate selection of shots showing home pets and natural disasters. My mum is called Lenka. She is a completely normal mum and casual user of a digital camera. It's sometimes enough to just remember certain moments, specially the less important ones.”
The video is available on Sons and Daughters’ profile on Vimeo. —> Link in bio.
