Fom Nigel Shafran's series Flowers for _____, his latest.
I haven't seen everyday this close, tales of small lives, ours.
To be absolutely seen with Michel de Certeau's essay "The Practice of Everyday Life".
Imperdível, aqui.
"Many, often remarkable, works have sought to study the representations of a society, on the one hand, and its modes of behavior, on the other. Building on our knowledge of these social phenomena, it seems both possible and necessary to determine the use to which they are put by groups or individuals. For example, the analysis of the images broadcast by television (representation) and of the time spent watching television (behavior) should be complemented by a study of what the cultural consumer "makes" or "does" during this time and with these images. The same goes for the use of urban space, the products purchased in the supermarket, the stories and legends distributed by the newspapers, and so on. "
