Life stops and goes on, simultaneously
My first sunday as an official, elderly orphan.
Tonight.
It is not altogether wrong to say that there is no such thing as a bad photograph — only less interesting, less relevant, less mysterious ones.
Susan Sontag
The camera makes everyone a tourist in other people`s reality, and eventually in one`s own. Susan Sontag
‘Like the collector, the photographer is animated by a passion that, even when it appears to be for the present, is linked to a sense of the past.’ Susan Sontag.
‘Narratives can make us understand. Photographs do something else: they haunt us.’
Susan Sontag.
‘Photographs objectify: they turn an event or a person into something that can be possessed.’
A summary of three days.
‘All memory is individual, unreproducible’, Susan Sontag.
“There is the satisfaction of being able to look at the image without flinching. There is the pleasure of flinching.”

Routine.
Sunday afternoon.
A sunday’s perspective.
Academic stars. For real now.
Geste décisif.
A classroom with a view.
