NOTES ON THE SURFACE is an interrogation on the traces of transformation in the cities as product of time, erosion, labor, human presence. I am interested in details, in objects commonly overlooked, but that are always present as silent witnesses of the passing of time. Pictures of walls, street furniture, constructions and other mundane objects are mixed with portraits to suggest a parallel between both inanimate exteriors and human surfaces. These portraits are intentionally understated and meant to echo the quietness of the street images. Images were largely made with a 4x5 view camera.
