    Way To

    This series is composed of three photographs: two 200x60cm prints (one horizontal and another vertical) and one 200x82cm print (the one that was shown in the final show). This was the first series of images produced for the current research. Only sometime after this series was produced, was possible to comprehend its premonitory relevance: the relation to the long and slow evolution of the research project and the endeavour of keeping a large and complicate task on course and, hopefully, take it into a good harbour. The following image was the only one shown in the final exhibition because it had a symbolic link to the research work. It is a high angle shot made from inside a big ship onto a small tugboat that helps a big ship safely manoeuvre inside or outside the port. It resembles the image of a small David (the artist/researcher) not fighting but guiding a big Goliath (the PhD research project) so that it reaches its final goal.
