Abstract(s)
A Casa da Roda do Porto terminou as suas funções no final do século XIX. O arquivo que guarda
a sua memória e a de quem passou pela instituição encontra—se conservado no Arquivo Distrital
da cidade.
Integrando imagens estáticas e em movimento e som,o projeto parte do espólio deste
arquivo para construir uma perspetiva sobre os objetos que sobreviveram a Roda do Porto, em
especial os sinais que preservam os últimos vestígios genealógicos das crianças abandonadas.
Como referência, são considerados os projetos fotográficos dos autores Helena Flores e Daniel
Blaufuks desenvolvidos em torno do arquivo da Roda.
O estudo teórico analisa o conceito de arquivo, e respetiva relação com a fotografia, e pondera
sobre as possibilidades de representação e de interpretação autoral de uma coleção arquivística.
O trabalho fotográfico pretende estimular, através do olhar, da seleção e do trabalho técnico e
estético da autora do projeto, uma reflexão sobre a realidade da Casa da Roda e sobre as vidas
encerradas na memória do arquivo.
The Casa da Roda do Porto [Oporto Wheel House] ended its functions at the end of the 19th century. The archive that keeps its memory and that of those who passed through the institution is kept in the city's District Archive. Integrating still and moving images and sound, the project starts from the collection of this archive to build a perspective on the objects that survived the Casa da Roda do Porto, especially the signs that preserve the last genealogical traces of the abandoned children. As a reference, the photographic projects of the authors Helena Flores and Daniel Blaufuks developed around the archive of the Casa da Roda are considered. The theoretical study analyses the concept of archive, and its relationship with photography, and considers the possibilities of representation and authorial interpretation of an archival collection. The photographic work intends to stimulate, through the gaze, the selection and the technical and aesthetic work of the project's author, a reflection on the reality of Casa da Roda and on the lives enclosed in the archive's memory.
