Post-photographic constructions of expression

Digital photography, selfies, social media, facial recognition programs, etc. make up a panorama that allows the adoption of identities on demand, configured according to a strategic sense of “make-yourself-seen”. It is then possible to analyse the implementation of these protein masks from a sociological and political perspective, based on the references provided by artistic projects such as “Cibercracia” by Ignasi Prat or “Prosopagnosia” co-authored by Pilar Rosado and me.
