Beschreibung
The work of Magnum photographer Antoine d’Agata is centred in the main themes of addiction, sex, personal obsessions, darkness, prostitution and other taboo subject matters. In Lilith — the first title of La Fábrica’s new collection, 64P —, d’Agata sordidly portrays his relations with a Cambodian woman, who is addicted to methanphetamines and has worked in the prostitution market since she was 12 years old.
64P. is a photo-essay collection whose aim is to recover and raise the value of brevity. It is a collection that chooses intensity over duration. 64P. takes up a creative space akin to short stories in literature or short films in cinema. There are other ways to tell. Some things must necessarily be brief. This is why the most outstanding photographers have been invited to create under this premise.
