Constanza Valderrama

I understand photography as a material unique and unrepeatable thing. Through diverse material experimentations, my practice questions the conventional ways of doing photography and challenges the idea of reproduction that traditionally links to it. I am also interested in exploring the relationship between materials, photography and memory. In Grandmother, I explore the fragility of memory and how diseases such as Alzheimer violently attack the elderly through two experimental ways in which materials and photography intersect each other. In Horizon, I propose different material solutions of the same image that represents the landscape where I grew up, translating autobiographical situations, emotions and sensations that have shaped this particular memory over time.
