our publications

We approach photography as an excuse to talk about images; as an excuse to talk about life.

exhibitions

We are interested in producing research, education, and outreach through curatorial processes, which are materialized in the printed formats of our publications and, in turn, in the possibilities offered by the exhibition space. We are drawn to interventions that break with the conventional idea of the white cube and allow for exploring other formats that spark questions about images and text onto pages and walls alike.

.efímera

is a publishing house investigating visual productions crossed by photography.

 

We create editorial projects and objects such as photobooks, zines, posters, exhibitions and talks that reflect, from a conceptual and material perspective, the intersections of photography with other languages, arts and media.

 

We believe in a vision of the ecology of images. We understand photography beyond the shutter of a camera. We look outside the apparatus. We open, fracture and reorganize visual memories; intimate archives and public albums. We expand towards a constant exercise of [dis]assembly.

 

We collaborate with artists who play with the canons of visuality. We do not see photography as a palpable trace of reality. We are interested in hybrid and hypertextual photographic operations. We embrace cinema, literature, criticism, memes, advertising, drawing, design, cooking, intimacy and the everyday as practices of reproduction.
