this work was done with the Nukak Maku tribe in the Amazon rainforest, 2008

One of the slopes more prolific of the photographic activity is the
documentary kind, which is based on a belief of continuity between the
photographic image and the photographed.
The success of this conception is such that all the documents of identity are in the habit of being accompanied of a photography of the person who carries and has clear legal effects.
Nevertheless this hypothetical continuity is more than a cultural convention that has been tested seriously by different theoretical works about the photography.
Mirror seeks, among other things, to restate the relation between an image and its modal motivating not only a rethinking of the objectivity of the photography, but generating an entail with practices and cultural knowledge in this case of the indigenous tribe Nukak Maku, as a level more complex of documentary action.
