DISFRUTAR & COMPARTIR

Maritime dialogues of 200 years.

Bicentennial seas are landscapes that encapsulate two hundred years.These fictional landscapes are built with personal photographs and with the marinas of the 19th century photographers Gustave Le Gray, Herbert G. Ponting and Henry Stuart Wortley using the pictorial convention of combining a sky and a sea from different images.

This project aims at establishing a dialogue between the current authenticity-crisis driven by new technologies and a longstanding pictorial technique that consisted in inventing landscapes in favour of their poignancy.
