Of Rocks and the Man

Of Rocks and the Man Of Rocks and the Man* is a project using photography as an instrument of reflection over anthropic action upon rock spaces. Rocks of the earth are a perpetual record of time and action, but also symbolize a Sisyphic load that the Man must carry or at least balance – otherwise he will be in constant urgency. Environmental injustice emerges through images of isolation, suffocation, rigidness and shattered action, pointing toward equivalent phenomena in social and communitarian principles. Nothing is rapid or impatient in Rocks; a contemplation of the Man among them provides an impetus for a shift toward the eternal principles of internal rhythms and rules of natural existence in Anthropocene times. *as per G.B. Shaw’s “Arms and the Man”, a play about the futility of war and the hypocrisies of human nature.
