Geo-memories #1.2 - Bangkok

The series Geo-memories #1 - Bangkok explores the relation between water and architecture in Bangkok, along the Chao Phraya river. My research extends to the way places impregnate our memory. I don’t believe in the notion of “one” but rather of “multiple” when it comes to images and memories. I therefore used the multiple exposure process to compress several angles, instants and long distances into a single impression. It relates to the notion of souvenir more than a documentation.

As a technical note, I want to stress that all final images are made in situ and in camera, without any digital manipulation afterwards. This allows a direct connection to the scenery and time of photographing, also letting some room unpredictability. As an artist, I don’t want to fully control the process leading to the visual outcome; rather, I see myself as a catalyst between the photographed subject and its visual rendering.
