HYPERREAL
INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY AND VISUAL DESIGN COMPETITION
PROJECT BRIEF
Photography is not mere documentation of reality. Quite the contrary, it always involves its transformation. Through the photographic process’ filter, the world becomes something completely different: an image.
Keeping this fact as a starting point, photography can be used to represent something that does not exist yet or to produce something completely new, starting from a real and identifiable subject.
Right at the start of the new millennium, this process becomes possible thanks to photo correction softwares, but the same effect can be achieved with the use of pure photographic grammar. This art form has, in fact, a transformative nature: far from the diffused stereotype, photography is not a way to tell the truth, but it gives shape and matter to an interpretation of reality.
Instead of opening a window onto the world, photography must be used as a mirror, reflecting the author’s thought, vision and fantasy.
