01. ATLAS MONUMENTOS An image is usually a reduction of a multidimensional set of relations (at minimum, a complex one) to a two-dimensional plane. A Monument stems from this same fact. The multiplicity of moments, fragments, debris and accumulation that composes us are put together and reduced to a unit; our link to a history we built ourselves. Celebration and, therefore, archival are sides of the same coin, in a mutual process of construction and levelling. Monumentum indicates the act or the means of reminding. These three moments - photographic units - are not attempts at remembering, but instead processes of prospection; of reverting to the world of things. These are future archives, hence of nothing. Don't lead as much as produce a halt. Instead of causing us to remember the past like the old monuments, the new monuments seem to cause us to forget the future.
