Throughout 2020 we had the opportunity to immerse ourselves in Joan Fontcuberta 's archive, more specifically in the first years of his career as a photographer.
There is no doubt that our search was in part influenced by the concept of contravision , fascinating for us and crucial in Fontcuberta's trajectory. Contravision refers to those elements that rub against the photographic language itself, that call it into question, that rise up against its logic.
In our work of selecting and editing images -many of them unpublished- there has been a search for elements that tend to the unreal, the magical, the dreamlike. What interested us was not only what appears in the image, but what it hides, what transcends, what makes us imagine; in short, all those images that in one way or another missed what we call reality.
