This project is based on the idea of Event Horizon as the last limit of the visible.

After a famous conference by Stephen Hawking, "Black holes aint as black as they painted"​ where he stablished that maybe some information could in fact pass throughout the black hole into another universe.

So I started questioning what would it look like, the other side of a black hole, or just the inside. 

I also related the camera obscura pinhole with the black hole itself - at some extent they are both holes who concentrate and suck the light inside of them -, and when inside it feels that there is only blackness but in fact there are this beautiful images that the light information passing through the hole creates.

So a proposed visualization of what the inside of a black hole would look like, and therefore explore beyond the limit of visibility. The camera obscura was never the interest but just the excuse to photograph disrupted gravity and space. 

So the purpose os this specific project is the use of art as a visualization of the invisible, or in this case, the exact limit of visibility, by definition.

Horizonte de eventos es un proyecto que explora el límite de lo visible a través de una analogía con su denominación física. Es el límite de la visión delante de un agujero negro, el límite de la luz antes de ser engullida por el agujero negro, y por tanto incapacitando la visión.

Stephen Hawking, de todas formas, plantea la posibilidad de que los agujeros negros dejen pasar en alguna medida "información" y por tanto no sean "tan negros como los pitan" (Hawkings, 2016).

Sugerida por esta imagen intenté imaginar que hay dentro o detrás de estos, como sería el espacio-tiempo retorcido por la singularidad.

No me interesaba en absoluto la cámara oscura en si, sino que esta me proporcionaba la excusa para poder trabajar con espacio y gravedad disruptivos.

El agujero de la cámara obscura, era el agujero negro, y yo habitaba y fotografiaba el interior de ese agujero negro.
