“There was a silent, imperceptible crack, at the surface, a unique surface Event. It is as if it were suspended or hovering over itself, flying over its own field. The real difference is not between the inside and the outside, for the crack is neither internal nor external, but is rather at the frontier.†Gilles Deleuze
The work Borda (Border) of the artist Anna Paola Guerra is a photographic essay on the surface of things, the little things, the delicacy, the banality, almost nothing. But almost nothing is already a lot, as shown in the exhibition presented at the Museu de Sant’Ana, on the occasion of 6th Tiradentes Photography Festival.
Anna photographs the small accidents interposed on her way, the most insignificant phenomena. Involuntary sculptures, casual interventions chosen by the eye or even born of shifts operations lasting the time of taking a photograph. Surface events.
Anna, in her paths, find objects known to all that have aesthetic meanings in circulation in daily life but are hardly perceived in the rush of day-to- day. The markings of a book, a wind-activated curtain, a label that takes off. It is in the election of these elements as a matter of work that there is an inversion. As if suddenly all matter as a simple displacement of the room to the backyard offers enough excitement for a lifetime.
Anna conceives a walk through the fields of the senses, attentive , decelerated . Photographers are post-atelier artists. It is in the yard and on the street that they will get their matter. The atelier is the world.
