The photographic project "2024- Between Control and Silence" explores the delicate boundary between reality and perception, investigating how images can both separate and connect. Through a play of contrasts, the images document the growing tension and the police's shift from guardians to agents of repression, highlighting the alienation between citizens and authority. These landscapes serve as oases of reflection on space and belonging, conversing with scenes of conflict to raise questions about coexistence, control, and the essence of freedom. This project not only narrates through photography but explores the nuances of appearance, building a visual bridge between confrontation and quiet, reality and perception, and fostering dialogue amidst polarization.
“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.[…]If the party says that it is not even the same thing, then the question must not been asked. When the party claims the past has been changed, it is pointless to question how. The party makes truth, not to be followed but to be accepted.“
1984 - George Orwell
