THE DEMOCRATIZATION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHED

Image
Drying - Ronciglione 2019 In the democratization of the photographed, the meditative process, which does not discern between good and bad thoughts but simply watches them rise and disappear, is imitated.  In this practice, we focus exclusively on the thinking process, regardless of its qualities.  Similarly, by recording images of more or less interesting subjects, the image acquisition process is witnessed, without any discretion.  Here then that by democratically accepting all the photographable, you are no longer bound to the subject and the message of the image.  In this way, we can completely abandon ourselves to our role of "world observers" and "instant recorders", as if we were simple instruments of divine dance, not very dissimilar from the camera we use.
