About the Book
Memoirs of a Goldfish photographic series that illustrates Liquid World book is composed of 94 colored and B&W images; produced on the streets of Sydney, AU using the technique of multiple exposure of negatives. The essay, as a form of personal artistic expression, questions our daily routine in the big cities. It explores the impact on our lives of intensive exposure to technology, artificial lights, pollution, information, speed pressure, high population density and impersonal environments. At the same time, it depicts that we somehow become used to all this, as if living in a parallel world, displaced from our bodies, ignoring others and even the air we breathe. Hence comes the metaphor with the fish in the water, moving around at its own pace, diverting from others, regardless of memory, memoirs or truths. Images witness the moving city, the lack of contact between humans, the emptiness in their expressions, and overlapping layers of our own absent existence.
