Thyago Nogueira

Sao Paulo (SP)



EstéreoBrasília, 2010

 

The photographer, equipped with a 1950s Kodak camera, subverts Brasilia’s recurrent imagery by selecting scenes of what cannot be controlled in the planned city, preferably less known places where the action of improvisation is seen. Apart from that, the vastness of the scenographic landscape so typical of that capital is heightened by the use of the anaglyptic technique (which endows the image with depth when using 3D glasses).
