Rites

2020

Intervened photography.

In Rito the concept of transmutation and identity are made evident. Linking marriage with the order of the sacred and the ritual, placing its participants as beings who are part of a ceremony from which they will come to embody what should be . It becomes more important to know which character the mask represents and not who wears it.

 

“Covering the face is erasing one's identity, but not as someone playing at being nobody for a time, but rather as a preliminary step to assuming another identity, usually linked to the sacred order.”

Transcultural theory of art, Adolfo Colombres. 2005.
