Marco Bainella   bio            e-mail       Photography   Souvenirs of Avellaneda   These photos are born out of walking, out of adaptation and out of parsimony, and out of the little I knew about photography when my necessity to use it arose, in order to register the experience of modifying and being modified. I recreate from a situation of austerity, which permits me to enter into a direct dialogue with occurrences and images without dehydrating them through technicalities. I take advantage of formats as familiar as the photo album, or impressive large format vinyl displays, in order to show this production.     This city has left a significant mark on me, and so I have elaborated small objects that facilitate remembrances of this beautiful waterside metropolis. You cannot imagine my surprised expression the afternoon that I saw a nutria swimming along the shores of the Riachuelo!       * nutria can be read or understood as: rat of monstrous proportions.
