PHOTOMATON is a work on memory and absence that exposes us to representations of people which, as a matter of fact, cannot tell us anything about their subjects. They leave us with mere physiognomies, clues about social, cultural, financial status, which tell us very little about the actual core of the life of the people portrayed.

PHOTOMATON uses as a starting point for its reflection the automatic photographic booth, still present today in public spaces as metro stations, transforming it into a miniature museum.
