Images captured during a day, at Largo de Pinheiros, in the city of São Paulo, with three lomographic cameras - simple Russian machines that operate with film, producing very particular images, with certain distortions. Thus, a strange movement appears, a time that is not conventional, that registers the life of the megalopolis and offers us images that evoke other times. As in the chronopios that give a title to the work, which mentions those created by the writer Julio Cortázar, a conjunction of records without many definitions, but that tells us something. Letícia Ramos produces her video installation making the image the result of a demonstrated process, in the presence of the machines that capture and edit the image. In the projections, the overlap proposes other angles, other records of the known. Documented ephemerality. At the same time outside and inside the time.
