Imaginary City
The high degree of complexities in that which is found installed in the contemporary city is explosive of very diverse phenomena, that evolve in a permanent way and at high speed. This context conducts to the urban population to establish its own and differentiated forms to inhabit, breaking into pieces the classical dichotomy that differentiated the urban from the rural. These strategies obey as much to real perceptions as to imagined and equip conceptions of user and of imaginary. Inhabiting, in the most extensive sense of its demonstrations, the urban being builds an imaginarium with the capacity to generate its own, unique and different city, being this the referee and antecedent of all its subsequent uses, in a cycle that is fed back in mutual complexities. In this context, to photograph the cities is something more than registering the memory of this process. It is a matter of documenting the Imaginary-City.
