Desejos ilustrados : um resgate à fotopintura

Using the photographic image as a drawing tool we end up uncovering a universe with two dimensions: the technical and the affective. To rescue the technical essence of Photo Painting, to artistically draw with light, is to go through the History of Portrait and to discover the real meaningful existence of the photographic image -since its beginning until its use changed within society. To go back to the origins of the practical techniques is to find a unique language inside this particular universe. The purpose of this dissertation is to work images not only as mere copies or mirrors of reality but as sanctuaries. To do so, I worked on finding meaningful elements within those images to add or subtract other elements. Meaning, by going through the affective element and interacting with it, I was able to find out which practical techniques I would be able to use without hurting or even diminishing other people’s memories. The premise is to provide clues in the investigation in order to make this the first step in a continued research.
