Mike Mike 未来の顔（未来の顔）はグローバル化の人間工学と現在の地理的、地政学的な力がどのように各都市の人間構成に影響するかについての探求であります。 又同時に、未来の顔はそれぞれ違う場所の都市の合成写真が、各場所の地政学的なストーリーを物語っていることからして極めて地域的 でもあります。 “顔の結合作業で新人物を作成するのはとても楽しいです。?典型的にクリエイティブな作業です。ー最終的にできあがってくる新人物ー今までに存在していなかった誰かー今は存在しない誰かーしかしなお、かなり現実的な誰か。。。”

SESC Avenida Paulista, Sao Paulo, Brazil, 5 August ? 5 September 2004 Mike was in Sao Paulo recently for the Forum Cultural Mundial and photographed 400 people at four locations around the city. He has created four faces that represent four aspects of the city as well as one supercomposite that represents the city as a whole. “For me the four locations tell in miniature the story of Sao Paulo as it is at the beginning of the 21st century. Santo Andre represents the new upwardly mobile working class rapidly transforming into a new middle class, Santo Amaro represents the new arrivals to the city from the north east of the country seeking a better life, Avenida Paulista is the established middle class and the Forum Cultural Mundial held at Anhembi is Sao Paulo’s window to the wider world. Brazil is often called the country of the future and it has been interesting to see the future of the future. As a child in South Africa, Brazil was held up as a utopia ? a place where, impossibly it seemed, people of all races lived together without the problems of Africa or North America. So it was with a personal interest that I came to Sao Paulo to see a utopia made real for me through the process of meeting the individual people and a utopia then recreated in the new composite faces. The composite faces themselves are all remarkably similar attesting to the integration that has taken place in Brazil over the past 500 years. Interesting for me was that the faces are smiling ? for the first time showing teeth ? clearly the people of utopia are happy indeed!” For more info on SESC go to www.sescsp.org.br |
