Abstract(s)
Com esta dissertação procura-se explorar as semelhanças
que existem entre as fotografias de família e o cinema palimpsesto,
ambos registos emocionais que aqui são chamados de
registos nostálgicos pelo sentimento que transmitem.
Aborda-se o conceito de nostalgia e de que maneira afeta o
nosso comportamento, a nossa arte e a nossa memória. Isto é
feito através das fotografias de família e fotogramas que são
colocados em confronto para compreender de que forma podem
e conseguem coexistir no mesmo espaço. Como estes
registos são representações da nossa memória, congelamentos
de momentos e nem sempre nos recordamos deles da
forma como realmente ocorreram, são feitas experiências artísticas,
às quais chamo de estudos de caso, onde se explora
essa ideia. Nestes estudos de caso faz-se uma manipulação e
montagem entre fotogramas e fotografias de família onde se
concilia técnicas mais digitais com manuais, destacando-se
o uso de agulha e linha. Estas são feitas de modo a ilustrar
aquilo que pode ser criado por entre essas incongruências da
memória e de que maneira essas falhas nos dão espaço para
reconstruir e criar novas realidades.
With this dissertation I aim to explore the resemblances between family photographs and palimpsest films, both emotional captures to which I name nostalgic records by the feeling they provoke. It is approached the concept of nostalgia and the way it affects our behavior, our art and memory. This is accomplished through the confrontation between family photographs and movie stills to comprehend if they can coexist in the same space. Because these captures are representations of our memory, they act as frozen moments, and since they are frozen in time, we can’t always recall them exactly as they were. To explore this theme, I create artistic experiences that I name case studies. In these case studies I manipulate and create montages of family photographs and movie stills using more manual techniques (here the embroidery plays a big part) combined with digital ones. These are made in order to illustrate the possibility of creation that lies in our memory lapses and the space it gives us to reconstruct and create new realities, new stories.
