Street: Honorable Mention 2018 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Reasonably big territory, densely occupied by living, sentient beings and crowded architecture that humans build their lives around, according to a social and economic structure, as well as their cultural activity. A sometimes hypocritical, false and reprehensible anthill where our so called daily deeds actually turn it into an abyss of the human condition, perpetuating the lack of a sensible side, of all that makes us close to each other, everything that is warm, good-natured and, in some cases, even depriving us from our individuality... nobody looks at you in the eye anymore... thousand of beings living together in solitude...
AUTHOR
Expanded poetics of perception, memory, and territory
Daniel Agra makes abstract and expanded photography a method of inquiry: transforming the visible in order to delve deeper into perception, memory, territory, temporality, consciousness, and subjectivity. His work progressively shifts the image from representation toward experience, turning it into a space for thought and the act of looking into a form of knowledge.
