Stemming from my artistic practice, whose medium and recurring theme is the projection, this research consists of proposing and analysing the concept of the projecting image. In order to outline this concept, and distinguish it from the already known artistic category, the projected image (that combines both the notion of projection and screen), I seek to highlight the spatial, temporal and material dimensions, that constitute what I call the projective phenomenon, based on three preconceived ideas: the projector, the projective space and the projective surface. Thus, the main purpose of this thesis is to argue that the projecting image, connected to this projective phenomenon, develops through a complex process of transformation, comprised by an impulse, a journey and a trace. First, it seeks to understand how the image is propelled to the outside world, proposing the projector, on one hand, as a technological device, on the other as the body of the subject that projects the image. Secondly, it analyses the way in which the projecting image crosses and unfolds in the projective space, as well as the metamorphic and intermittent properties inherent to the pulsating flow of the projecting image during its journey. Finally, this research seeks to understand the ways the projecting image reveals itself, that is, what remnants and traces emerge through the reciprocal activation and transformation between image and surface. This investigation, being of a theoretical and practical nature, is closely articulated with a set of works produced along this journey and presented in my solo exhibition entitled Contorno Aparente, and identifies the projecting image, not only as the main theme of this theoretical investigation, but also as the leitmotif of the creative process within my artistic practice. |
