 前言 Introduction 

一个小盒子放在岩石地上。它看起来像悬崖。背景是海吗?或者只是更多的岩石?这是悬崖吗?是一个小盒子吗?在沙漠景观中,这些扶手椅和咖啡桌旁边的沙发怎么样?它们是缩小版的,还是真人大小的,是沙漠还是远处有水道?这张照片中什么是远的,什么是近的?即使在我们认为自己知道的情况下,问题是否仍然存在?什么是远?过去这些物体从哪里来?还是未来,抓住了他们,为这张照片进行了暂定的翻译?附近是什么?也许,在这个礼物中,我们站在房间里,与每件作品进行无声的对话?
“Juego de Living”(客厅布景或生活的游戏,或游戏的生活)中的拍摄对象是由来自世界不同地方的女性选择的,并提出成为其他事物的一部分:许多主观性通过单一的主观性和相机。
 
即使我们不完全理解我们正在看的是什么对象,我们也确实了解它们涉及多少内容,它们压缩了多少。照片中的物体有点像在跳动、沸腾。观察了一段时间后,它周围似乎出现了完整的电子运动。
 
是一个小盒子吗?卷尺?手机屏幕有缺口?我们的手指可以感觉到触摸,我们的手掌可以感觉到重量。这张照片清楚地表明:该物体被触摸、闻过、移动过。这是一个身份。它被擦拭干净,从一个架子换到另一个架子,放进抽屉里,然后又拿出来。它从一个家到另一个家。它有一种刺鼻但又谨慎的气味,让人想起另一个时间、另一个地方或所爱的人。就像我们的宝藏一样,它在太空中占有一席之地。

A little box rests on a rocky ground. It looks like a cliff. Is that the sea in the background? Or is it just more rock? Is it a cliff? Is it a little box? And what about these armchairs and a sofa next to a coffee table in a desert landscape? Are they miniatures, are they life-size, is it a desert or is there a watercourse in the distance? What is far and what is near in this photograph? And even in those cases when we think we know – doesn’t the question remain? What is far? The past where these objects come from? Or the future, which seized them for this photo in a tentative translation? And what is near? This present, perhaps, in which, standing in the room, we have a silent conversation with each of the pieces?
 
The photographed objects in “Juego de living” (living room set or the game of living, or living as in a game) were chosen by women from different places of the world and offered to be part of something else: many subjectivities tied together by a single subjectivity and a camera.
 
Even when we don’t exactly understand what object is it that we are looking at, we do understand how much they involve, they compress. It’s a bit as if, in the photo, the object were beating, and boiling. After watching it for a while, a whole electrical activity seems to build up around it.
 
Is it a little box? A measuring tape? A cellphone with a chipped screen? Our fingers can perceive the touch, our palms can feel the weight. The photo makes it clear: that the object has been touched, smelled, and moved. It’s an identity. It was given a wipe down, changed from one shelf to another, it was put in a drawer, and taken out again. It went from one home to another. It has a pungent but also discreet scent reminiscent of another time, another place or someone loved. Just like our treasures, it claim its place in space.
