BABILÔNIA BRASILIENSE

2024

This series of pics it's part of an e-book, in the form of a photographic and emotional record, is the result of a final project for the Social Communication course at the University of Brasília about the memory and zeitgeist of Babilônia Norte, a commercial block located in CLN 205 and 206 in Asa Norte, Brasília.

For the elaboration of this project, 465 photos were captured, and five interviews were conducted, according to the receptivity of local businesses, in addition to planned visits to the block at different times and days of the week, in order to understand the diverse faces and dynamics that the place presents.

The choice of this block as a study object, as well as the photographs recorded, are based on my sensitivity and experiences, after I met the block for personal reasons and instantly fell in love with it and its eccentricity.

In this publication, as a main focus, you can see in some of the photographs I took, four dimensions identified in the block, not as a way of representing the whole, but as elements that stood out throughout my researcher process, namely: graphic memory, social relations and contrasts.

This work seeks to raise awareness in the Brasiliense community, giving visibility to a block that contains diverse stories and expressions, in addition to a lot of artistic potential, and that tells a little about the experimental, subjective, and emotional character of a city that was built to be political.

Soon, I will release the physical book with all the photographs and some writings about Babilônia Norte. Stay tuned for more information!
