Ethics, Representation, and New Visual Narratives In Latin America
Decolonizing the photographic gaze and searching for new narratives of identity and history have been much discussed in Latin America in recent years. This is because the dominant aesthetic standards have been defined by external forces, with structures of knowledge from anthropology to science rendering Latin identity as subjects without agency who do not control their own history.
This live event – conducted in Spanish – probes the question of ethics, representation, and new narratives in Latin America. Leonardo Carrato is in conversation with Paola Paredes from Ecuador and Diego Moreno from Mexico. Paola and Diego present their personal projects and discuss their creative processes, given the challenges of finding a visual language to express themselves differently in documentary photography.
