onde está a essência da fotografia?

"onde está a essência da fotografia?" in english: "where is the essence of photography?"

I think that's an important question for every photographer...

And here is my gedanken experiment:

First I made a triangle frame and put a strange picture in it, where I dashed the ink before it was dry. Later I stamped the question on it.

After this I made a triptych with three black&white pictures which I printed on the backside of old pictures. As next step I stamped the question on them.

Well, this is my first gedanken experiment to solve this question, but I think that there are more solutions...

the good, the bad + the ugly

A brand new palimpsest triptych, which I made in an edition of 2.
As paper I've used some old statements of accounts, resp. information billets, which came sometimes with the statement of account.

the first edition:
"the good" part 1 (101) of triptych "the good - the bad - the ugly" - edition 1
"the bad" part 2 (102) of triptych "the good - the bad - the ugly" - edition 1
"the ugly" part 3 (103) of triptych "the good - the bad - the ugly" - edition 1

the second edition:
"the good" part 1 (201) of triptych "the good - the bad - the ugly" - edition 2
"the bad" part 2 (202) of triptych "the good - the bad - the ugly" - edition 2
"the ugly" part 3 (203) of triptych "the good - the bad - the ugly" - edition 2
