It’s no secret, in fact nowadays it is considered normal to have photos on photos stored in the meandes of the memory of the phone, computer, iPad, hard drives covered in dust.
If you find me cute, take me home with you and show me to your friends, attach me to the fridge, print other photos of yours to keep me company and pass on the feeling of having a photograph in the hands to all the people you love!”
Although the habit of printing a photo has almost been lost, it is fascinating to rediscover how holding a memory can arouse emotions that can engage you in 360 degrees.
Find the feeling of something that exists and that still exists in a print hanging on a wall in the kitchen, at the entrance, in a hallway or laid on the bedside table. Giving life to a frame that knows how to define that memory that now physically keeps us company and a glance at him is enough to be able to relive the emotion that binds us to that photo.
Printing a photo means personalizing an album with an inscription, a date, a thought that will be a memory for those who can browse it … a precious legacy!
Of course … now there are digital frames, photos on the screen of the mobile phone or PC, photos linked to a number in the phone book, photos that appear in a folder on the desktop. But that’s not the same thing! There is always the hand and the eye behind that shot, the person or the landscape, the colors or the black and white, the light and the shadows and therefore the memory, but there will never be the concrete emotion of being a whole ‘one with that photo.
You can find the polaroids in the activities I described below.
The photos I printed are not “professional” photos, but moments of everyday life that derive value from the moments they remember…
Each of you can take photos like these, the important thing is to remember, from time to time, to make them come to life on paper!
