The photo album is a witness and a depository of stories and memories of a family and has physical characteristics and qualities such as photographs. In the photographic album, there is almost always an organization of the photographs, a sequence, some more inventive than others, creating autobiographies and narratives of a family life, preserving the memories that inhabit there and those that no longer inhabit - the empty spaces -; those that have been lost over the years, but also giving them the possibility to multiply. Terra II albums are used here as a support for memory and transformation, implementing collages of moving images and sound fragments, in an exercise to confront the image and / with the sound.
