Carlos Rodrigues, student of the BA Visual Arts - Multimedia at University of Évora, presents two projects based on the re:cuperation and transformation of audivisual materials, on the re:invention of a creative process, and on the re:actualization of a biography. In his projects, old supports for image archiving – VHS and slide – are transformed, converted from ancient supports to more recent ones, and imagens that constuited its content are equally re:worked and converted into matter for a new artistic object. By rendering the documental material into matter of artistic creation, this project brings also to us the re:flection on the role of documentation in contemporary creation.
