Spina

"Spina is ironic in that it is an "on the road" photographic project at a time when it is not possible to leave the house to do photography"

ABOUT THE PROJECT*:

​Spina is a photographic project that dialogues rhetorically with Ed Ruscha's pioneering projects, but it is a project whose characteristics are absolutely unique to the times we are living in.
Spina is ironic in that it is an "on the road" photographic project at a time when it is not possible to leave the house to do photography. Spina portrays a journey along the backbone of the Algarve - the national road 125, from Vila do Bispo to Vila Real de Santo António.
In Spina we use the available tools in a time of confinement: instead of the physical space we use the continuous virtual representation of the planet provided by Google Street View; instead of the car we use the mouse as a tool to travel in the virtual space and, finally, instead of a film camera we use the "screen capture" shortcut to cut delimited and unique photos from the available continuum.
Spina is a confined reflection about the traces that life inscribes on the road.
