‘Evidences’ is a curated collection of photos taken over a period of five years. With these 79 photographs, Suffo Moncloa constructs a meditative journey, a multifaceted dialogue between images based on decontextualized language, with evocations from form, colour, implied mystery, and the inherent power of the image itself. The collection’s narratives deal directly with the elements that make up our world, but also with the idea of creating a timeless image. It includes evidences from the working process, dark room experimentation, and reconstruction. The idea of materiality becomes central; capturing moments when a vision can be transformed into an object, or something else.

A photo book consisting of works by Suffo Moncloa mainly before 2015. It depicts a wild dream that consists of figures and symbols, signaling an apocalyptic world. What is left from waking up from a dream are hardly narratives, even the most memorable ones, but sharp details of a moment, a feeling that lingers. During the initial quarantine of the pandemic, it was difficult for me to project the future. I went back to my archive and started to noticed some photos. There are some that relate to meaningful moments of my life, for instance, the cover image of black horses, lotus flower image that I took in China, and factory image from a road trip to Valencia. I chose only black and white photos at the beginning. Absent from colour, they may appear more distant and different from our reality, hence, more impressive in a way. When I lined them up and started to make some pairings. Some broken narratives were actually created. It led me back to the archive and started to complete the journey. It was another special moment for me and for many people as future remained unknown to us. We are all just flickering specks in the history of the earth. Why not be daring ? Dream a wild a dream. Nevertheless, it ends in peace, a hopeful wish from me, a rebirth like the lotus flower growing in muddy water.
It consists of two parts alongside a poster.
