2012 Photographic Residencies

For the Résidences de Photoquai, Hugo Aveta extended his work in Argentina to other Latin American countries.He set out to rediscover the shared past of Chile, Uruguay, Bolivia and Paraguay by following the indelible traces left in places steeped in life and death, all symbols of the events that darkened the history of the South American continent. Through this project - with models followed by photographs -, the artist seeks to transform collective memory into a story.

Series produced between 2012-2013.
