Photographs – Double Exposure. Single Shot. Not an image montage. 

Based on the book “Synchronicity” by Carl Gustav Jung. Synchronicity (syn-, from the Greek συν-, union, and χρ νος, time) is the term chosen by Carl Gustav Jung to refer to “the simultaneity of two events linked by meaning, but in an acausal way.” 

This is a good “technical” presentation to define this work, yet photography is its essence: it is an instant, fractions of a second in which something that exists only in Silvina’s thoughts becomes fixed. 

A memory is taken and magnified, made into a body—her body. The marks of the past in her present, which will soon become the future. 

Chance is a game: sometimes one wins and sometimes one loses. She is fortunate and often wins. Space and Time align (Synchronicity), generating a personal aesthetic that is pure and rustic. 

There is a need to repeat symbols, metaphors… objects belonging to the artist that need to become present once again, even if only for an instant—if only to remain exposed and remembered, reaffirming not only the past but also the physical body itself. 

This is how Silvina speaks: unconsciously, without reasoning, exploding through improvisation. The results can sometimes be rough—extreme images, unreal colors, and forms that transform themselves. 

There is always a self portrait and a memory in the form of an object. Because the images are captured in the same space, an aesthetic and conceptual fusion occurs “by chance”— that is to say, magic, or we might also call it poetry. 

Time does not pass unnoticed. Childhood memories, always carrying nostalgia, intersect with this physical present, which now has already “passed.” Now everything is already past—photography is always the past.
