El tiempo habitado was originally a blog created in 2010 and left in 2017. It published images, texts, sounds, videos and a network of links to other things. Inhabited time was a method that provoked a gathering of elements that make up a sort of body of work. Like all things, that is what is seen and what is not seen. In addition to the publications, the drafts that were never published were important. But not literally that which was not published, but the fact that there was something unseen in substance and equally necessary in form.
Pablo Trenor Allen’s photographic practice has to do with the transit back and forth between these visible and non-visible aspects. This practice refers both to the taking of the photograph and to the relationship of the photograph over time, with the way the image exists, its persistence, and the transformation of its meaning. The coexistence of photographs and texts in the process of making or discovering an image creates a particular space in which the image is finally made.
The installation at ANDA is a gathering of things that belong to this inhabited time. Through different formats and modes of communication, a space and a time are proposed in which certain experiences converge and their images emerge.
