Black Motion explores the vitality, energy, the expression of emotions
deeper in the intensity of educated eyes and movements. Captured images
small moments and outlines of reality because of their normality explode
extraordinary. Framed in the slippery and elusive urban reality, the
subjects move in dance steps, glances of challenge, curiosity,
loss, meditate, dream and force the observer to take
a complex voyage between familiarity and strangeness. The focus on the subject,
on intimate moments, on thoughts and feelings that can be imagined through
expressions of the faces, body posture and movements imperfect
reveal the picture of the feelings and thoughts that leaves suspended
viewer the task of completing the story.
These photos, beautiful aesthetic tools of investigation of individual stories
and collective, reveal different realities and alternatives to those
populate the imaginary built in recent years on the subject here immortalized.
Away from the spectacle of marginality, the pictures reveal a world
valuable and unknown without embarrassment and hesitation in describing what the
word, with a thousand contortions, manages badly to explain. African and African
blacks and black color, black, dark colored are some of the expressions
politically correct language with which you approach this world.
To speak of these populations and to develop a new narrative
their presence in urban spaces of our everyday lives and our
emotional world, we need now more than ever, the visual. The image becomes
essential. Black Motion is therefore a challenge. The beginning of a new narrative
recounted the following representations of bodies in which the rings
magnetic power of gesture.
