Fotografia mostra universo infantil com sutileza e sensibilidade
O
fotógrafo Timothy Archibald começou a fotografar o filho, Elijah,
quando ele tinha cinco anos. As fotos colaborativas eram uma maneira de
criar algo em comum e uma tentativa de entender um ao outro. Um pouco
depois de começarem o projeto, o filho foi diagnosticado com autismo.Segundo Archibald, o diagnóstico fez com que ele entendesse melhor o filho e surgiu a necessidade de criar uma ponte emocional entre os dois. As fotos passariam a ter papel importante na relação e resultaram no livro “Echolila: Sometimes I Wonder”.
Na construção das fotos, os dois trabalham juntos, mas Archibald afirma que tenta deixar o filho com todo o processo criativo e o fotógrafo apenas opera a camêra. Depois, eles redefinem e tentam melhorar as ideias das fotos. Nada é programado e Elijah costuma fazer coisas inesperadas.

The Photographer Timothy Archibald began photographing his son, Elijah, when he was five. The photos were a collaborative way to create something in common and an attempt to understand each other. Shortly after the project began, the child was diagnosed with autism.
According to Archibald, the diagnosis made him understand better the child and the need arose to create an emotional bridge between the two. The photos would have important role in the relationship and resulted in the book "Echolila: Sometimes I Wonder."
In the construction of the photos, the two work together, but Archibald says attempts to leave the child with the whole creative process and the photographer operates only my camera. Then they try to improve and redefine the ideas of the photos. Nothing is programmed and Elijah usually do unexpected things.
