RE: ADSactly Photography: Poetics of the Ruins

in #photography5 years ago

Beautiful photos and senses texts, @josemalavem. Your poem is simply sublime. The ruins give me a certain shudder. I feel that, like old age, they speak of time, of history, of the past. Seeing the ruins of a castle like Araya leads us to imagine characters, to create a reality. I don't know if it happens to you, but I feel that the ruins give a certain air of permanence, of perennial existence through time. As if the world showed the wounds, vestiges of a time that is no longer, but that survives. In the end, even man is ruins, echoes of what he was and never again. Thank you for sharing.

Grateful for your visit and comment, @nancybriti. I agree with you (and some of that is picked up in Maria Zambrano's quotes): the ruins are a testimony of a time that survives us, that goes beyond the immediate time. It is a pity that many times some ruins are lost due to negligence or mistreatment. Greetings.
