WAYS OF SEEING (2018) is an exercise in appropriation and assembly, using images from two editions of Life Latin America magazine purchased during a trip to Buenos Aires in 2016. The compositions were thought of as a game of images, where the act of folding and unfolding (common to the act of leafing through a magazine) creates and recreates narratives. This series also subliminally questions the content of a magazine dedicated to Latin America produced and edited in the United States.

20x25cm, appropriated photographs on cardboard paper, series of 9.
