- Summary:
- The images of Península Valdés, Patagonia in Argentina belong to photographer and psychologist Laura Ferro's family archive, and they represent a personal quest in which different layers of history, her photographic work and her life intermingle. "In 1888, my great-grandfather, Alessandro Ferro arrived from Italy to this deserted land at Peninsula Valdes to manage a property on behalf of Francisco Cinzano. Alessandro began the exploration of Salinas Grandes and Salinas Chicas. He built the railroad that transported the salt to the sea before shipping it by boat. This is how Puerto Piramides was born [...] I began rescuing fossils, classifying maps, arranging photos, drawings, letters, and travel diaries. As the archaeologist of the family archives, I was reconstructing a story, its multiple dimensions, its shadows." --Page [5]
