Eu fotografo-te a fotografá-lo a fotografar-me

Patrícia Almeida, David-Alexandre Gueniot

Performance

I photograph you photographing him photographing me starts off from a game-device whose intention is to take the act of photographing to exhaustion. In that device, three players (A, B and C) are at once photographing and being photographed. They have four possibilities of action at hand: photograph themselves (A photographs A), photograph one of the persons (A photographs B), photograph the other person (A photographs C), and photograph the two persons together (A photographs [BC]). A list of instructions consisting of 64 sentences describes all the combinations that can be accomplished. This book explores a variation that replaces the names of the interveners (A, B, and C) with the personal pronouns I, You, and He.
