CORTEX

Abstract

This project presents the photographic illustration of a quotation referred by the portuguese film director Ricardo Costa. The development of this memory aims at the theoretical interpretation of the themes addressed in the author's book and the respective connection with the image compositions produced by me. The theoretical interjection aims at a very brief analysis of some chapters of the book in which the artist develops essays on the light, the vision, the relation between both, the visual cortex and its importance for the interpretation of contents and the human body as an element of interpretation. The respective photographic illustration is presented by a sequence of six black and white images, following a specific aesthetic where the Low-Key aspect and the high contrasts predominate. To finalize the memory is presented a plan of marketing and dissemination of the project as a piece of exhibition in art gallery respecting the necessary steps for a correct and good disclosure of the final result of this work.
