Abstract | |
The broader objective of this work is to conduct a shared visual research in Paraty. To this end we address different relationships between the individual and the city, using photographs from the personal collections of different profiles found in the city: natives, immigrants and tourists. To each of the twelve research participants was asked to select twelve photographs from his personal collection in order to answer the question \"What is your Paraty like?\". From these photographs we conducted interviews, at which moment the participants talked about the images they had selected, allowing us to glimpse at social meanings in their narratives, and to point out the creative processes experimented in the context of research. By the end we had created: a) twelve sets of twelve photographs each corresponding to their author and research participant; b) multiple author sets, composed of photographs of different authors which, nevertheless, develop a dialogue with each other. The procedures performed in this work, which combine personal collection of photography and narrative, allowed the collective creation of a photographic representation of the city of Paraty, shared between researcher and researched. Furthermore, we were able to approach some of the differences between tourists, immigrants and natives of this city, which are revealed in the images brought by each research subject (AU) | |
