Limited edition of photobook by Rosario Montero, a visual artist and photographer. Degree in Visual Arts (PUC, Chile), Master of Visual Arts (U.Chile) and Master in Digital Anthropology (UCL, London). Her individual exhibitions stand out in the Gallery of the CCE Santiago in 2004 and CCEM during 2015. Throughout her career of visual investigation, she has worked on the notions of landscape, identity and territory. Particularly addressing from the photographic representation and with emphasis on material culture: how to portray the objects, spaces and places we inhabit allows us to represent the problems of those who reside in them. Private Landscapes, financed thanks to a Fondart Project, has the curatorship of Ximena Moreno and delves into the particularities that are established in a landscape: the private garden, questioning from the photograph the representation of the landscape in its most daily form. The intimacy of the garden not only as the space in which nature predominates but also as a container where the organic coexists adjacent to the architecture, from an interested or disinterested design of a territory of pleasure, functional, ornate or forgotten. With works carried out from January 2014 to date, this research is based on the observation of two geographical zones of Chile with very different climatic, urban and natural environment characteristics (Iquique and Puerto Varas), places where the artist made a data collection in order to observe and analyze the relationships established by the inhabitants of these cities with the landscape in an ordinary environment, seeking to question the problems and contradictions that arise in daily experience with a domesticated territory; the garden. The works are composed, mostly photographs and are the result of a combination of two areas of knowledge. On the one hand, an anthropological work involved interviews, literature reviews and field visits. And on the other, the production of images. From this dynamic, the project is born and settles in a crossroads between anthropology and art, where photography appears not only as a documentation tool, but as a mediator in this methodological crossroads.
