MAUVE is the title of a series of photographic images shot over the last years. It functions allegorically, as signifier of a series of psychological attributes that characterize the gaze during this photographic work in progress. A gaze that expresses a stance, a reaction to the current social reality. I copy from the dictionary: ‘‘…Mauve is more than yet another hue in the palette. It is registered as mysterious, exuding superiority, passion, romanticism, nostalgic attraction …’’ The MAUVE series does not attempt to describe or illustrate situations, but rather to convey the vibe captured by the images from reality to the realm of communication.
