I I I by Miguel Leitão Jardim

“The conscience is the last phase of the evolution of the organic system, by consequence, it is also what is less finished and less strong in this system.” [1]


The 3, say the Chinese, is a perfect number, the expression of totality, of conclusion: nothing can be added to it. “The fundamental reason of this ternary universal phenomena must be undoubtly searched within a metaphisic of the composed and contingent being, in a global vision of unity-complexity of all beings in nature, and that is summarized in the three phases of existence: birth, growth, death.” [2] This phenomena also derives from the mathematical representation of the concept of the reproduction of species: 1 + 1 = 3.

Three series of nine photographs each are presented, around the question of individual conscience:

1. From the lights of which life is made of and the objects that they lit in a certain way. What are they? Illusions? Revelations? Access doors to enlightenment?

2. The body is finite. Is there an equal path to conscience? Does it access to enlightenment ou just simply renews itself?

3. The conscience contemplates the ideas, as thought by Plato, returns to its essence, melting with the most infinate particles of the Universe? And how does one photograph conscience?
