| Publisher Description: Terra Incognita is a Documentary photographic project that attempts to rescue and reveal to the world South America's Cultural and Natural Heritage utilizing modern Documentary Photography as its main tool, besides texts. A huge variety of themes, most of them unknown to the international audiencies, will be displayed in Terra Incognita collection of books. Culture and Nature of faraway places, most of them quite difficult to approach, will fullfill Terra Incognita's gorgeous pages. The project s goal is to match the per se attraction of the theme with its photographic interpretation: photography will be used as a creative tool and not merely as a registration instrument. A subtle mix between documentation and art will be constantly pursued. Fieldwork is the key stage to all the process, because that's when contents are created. Fieldwork implies travelling and staying in rare and exotic places of South America, hardly visited by tourism. Geography, History, Ethnography, Geology, traditional Festivals, old economic practices, art, everyday life, characters, Archeology and other areas of knowledge will be the main themes where Photography will act. The author of Terra Incognita, Lic. Andr s Salinero, hopes this huge effort touches the heart of people around the world and permits him to go on with this life long adventure into knowledge and beautiness. |
