Memory and Archive
The memory is a fundamental part of the work of SolipsisArt
We understand photography not just as an image, but as a process that produces knowledge, builds narratives and leaves traces in the territories.
This section brings together publications, research, and documentation of processes that allow us to understand how photographic practice becomesa tool for collective memory, critical reflection, and social transformation.
