Blueprints

2015

Blueprints was commissioned for the exhibition “Appearances Can Be Deceiving: Photographic Explorations through Mexican Photography”, curated by Irving Dominguez with the support of Museo Universitario del Chopo and Fondo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes.

This project sought to invert the relationship between photography and architecture, and return the museum’s building to its original space as a blueprint. Over a period of a month, I climbed the towers at the Chopo Museum in Mexico City, registering the shadow of the structure onto cyanotypes. The intention of the work was to reconnect architecture and photography, returning the building to its conceptual state through a poetic gesture that speaks about space in relation to time.
