How do we interact with our historical objects? How do we fit them into our contemporary lives? This project explores the different modalities of the portrait and analyzes its historical relevance, a natural aspiration of man to transcend. The deconstruction of the iconic vessel huaco mochica portrait (precedent of the representation of the human face in ancient Peru) generates new iconographies with their respective meanings and signifiers by projecting on its support, nowaday faces of peruvian people morfing with faces of mochicas in this historical object.
