Serien
Virgínia Sofia Neta
This Polaroid series captures theatrical, Renaissance-like sculptures, their bodies and raw emotions. First with a digital camera, then rephotographed as Polaroids. The square format acts as a viewfinder, cropping context. This series is about limiting what is seen and how far one’s mind can be guided by the tensions born from context (or lack there of).
