INSOMNIA

 
 

Insomnia is an experimental project by Thiago Dezan and Infinite that connects documentary photography and visual arts to tell the story of a wretched world.

Through a critical and political lens, they examine particular aspects of our society; a society that too often does not understand how mainstream culture is, above all, an instrument to justify oppression.

 
 

Have you ever had that gut feeling saying what you see is not true, and what you can’t see is the real thing? Almost as if you could touch what is not there, as if your eyes were playing you. You can picture, imagine, but it is all an invention, because the material world says so.

If your eyes are playing you, maybe your brain can guess what the reality is not showing. This work is about that, to portray what is missing but you can feel. Is about wonder. Is guessing the invisible truth.

As invisible as love, as untouchable as rage.

This work is very real, documentary in a sense, but is also a documentation of the gut feeling, of the brain working to make sense of everything.

It’s about what you never see and keep you awake at night.

It’s is not about daydream, it's about insomnia.
