The act of saving images and preserving a memory that you dont want to empty completely, were the start point for this work. The act of archiving does not have logic or rational classification. Photographic images were "selected" by a sort of emotional cartography. On the back of the wooden box, an oil painting indicates the scale of tones used in the five photographs.

Reference Color Chart
This notebook, consisting of four folded
prints, was used by the Czech naturalist
Thaddäus Haenke (1761-1817) at the end
of the 18th century to chromatically
encode and identify the flowers of the
world. Part of the archival collection of
the Royal Botanical Gardens in Madrid,
the chart features nearly 2,500 colours.
