The Aesthetics of Ethics 2015
The installation follows a research on the way social trouble is perceived through photography and on what this protocol of representation might say about citizenship, ethical concern or political consciousness. The project attempts to address the topic from the point of view of social inter-surveillance and to explore the amount of information present in casual photography as a map of human value.
