Photography https://nmphotos.org/Information Statement My photographic work deals largely with the human condition and it's mostly recognizable for the introspective and enigmatic imagery.A significant part of my work as an artist and photographer is an exploration on visual perception and a way of photographing thoughts or mental landscapes. These landscapes spring both from an inside perspective, as well as from someone on the outside looking into a particular topic within.The subject matter is not an essential part of what I wish to express because most of the times it's serving an universal purpose within the concept of a given series of photos - a narrative. Therefore the models, bodies or gestures are a natural consequence of the atmosphere they try to evoke.Since what I'm always looking to express is something from inside, I tend to work with the unknown and with elements which are not (always) visible or tangible in the frame.I strongly believe imagination and curiosity can be transcribed into images in a poetic way, through a language somewhere between cinema and literature.When I look back at some photos I understand the real interest lies outside the frame, that is, outside the image itself. In what is not there.I believe in the capacity of our minds to use the image as a mere gateway or starting point to then extrapolate beyond the confinements of the medium. Indeed that is what a good image should be able to do: take the viewer somewhere far away from what is real and tangible.

It's a series of intimate images that hold a deep reverence for a time when the mystery of life and death were closely related. Conceived in a manner close to theater, the book is divided into three chapters (Being, Becoming, Unbecoming) that explore the idea of human representation and how looking at an image actively (and preferably slowly) can evoke more than what is actually depicted in front of one's eye. To look at something is undeniably very different from looking into something and this marks the genesis for this work that borrows the title from a poem by Surrealist poet Paul Éluard.From a necessity of simplification of form/content the author takes the reader in a stream of consciousness relation between each picture choreographed to address a sphere of the immaterial and through subtle and evocative nuances talk about symbolic aspects of the human psyche and how we all relate at some point in our lives. <img width="130" height="40" width_o="130" height_o="40" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/546bc6214f521b28645ae2f8ed3c0cf6a31f2e48a3810354c02b497461ac26f9/orderhere.png" data-mid="245356914" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/130/i/546bc6214f521b28645ae2f8ed3c0cf6a31f2e48a3810354c02b497461ac26f9/orderhere.png" /> Exhibitions / Presentations2019/2020 - Centro Cultural de Cascais - Cascais, Portugal2019 - Museu Municipal de Faro - Faro, Portugal 2018 - Feira do Livro de Lisboa - Lisbon, Portugal Shortlisted for the “Best Book Design From All Over the World” competition of Stiftung Buchkunst, in Leipzig Shortlisted on the 2018 list of “Interesting Artist and Photographic Books for 2018”, according with The Photobook Journal&nbsp; Book Reviews “(...) The gaze of the other can change everything, it can appease, nurture, but there are always moments when the dialogue is just ours. Facing a camera is like that as well, in a process of recognition, construction and (de)construction – being, becoming, unbecoming. The photograph as an object is the crystallization of that moment and the starting point for a journey continuously rich in revelations about our identity. Somehow, that is the cornerstone process of Nuno Moreira’s brand-new book, She Looks&nbsp;into&nbsp;Me. Through a dance between the shadows and the body, there is a three-chapter exploration (Being, Becoming, Unbecoming) on the greatest mystery of the collective and individual identity – the cycles of life and death. Symbolic aspects, representative of how we relate to each other, are entangled in the simplification of the body forms and in the fluctuations of gestures and shadows.(...)” Filipa Penteado&nbsp;(click for full article) "In his previous work Nuno sought to «capture» his moments of unconsciousness, whereas in the realization of She Looks into Me, he appropriated the unconscious to strive to represent it, and his work is now much closer to that of the Surrealists.Life, death, dreams, thoughts, are the raw material. The threads are woven into a play. The pictures are always aesthetic, but it is to make us forget their presence and allow us to focus on the narration which remains interpreted by everyone’s mind. It draws, one chapter after the other, the «being», the «becoming» and the process of deconstruction that follows («unbecoming»).Consistency remains throughout the book, with recurring patterns that allow us to read a continuum, such as the cycle of life and death, which are, of course, ubiquitous motifs throughout the book. The rhythms change, accelerate and then slow down, before accelerating again. In this book, all the formal elements that constitute it (photos, layout, texts...) disappear at the service of the storytelling. Christer Ek&nbsp;(click for full article) “(...) Estamos ante un fotolibro que pese a ser presentado por un poema, ya es un poema en sí. Es un libro lleno de imágenes lentas, imágenes que se mueven despacio dentro de sí mismas y entre y unas otras. Imágenes, también, elegantes, profundas y dramáticas. Las fotografías alcanzan nuestra mente y nuestro corazón. Lo atraviesan y lo palpan. Lo acarician y lo velan. Eso es lo que la mirada de Moreira hace, como la flecha de Cupido o la lanza de un guerrero.&nbsp; El gesto aquí se torna principal, nos lleva a lo que Nuno quiere transmitir: corporeidad, miradas, inconsciencia. Luz que ensombrece pero que ilumina lo que vemos. Estamos, sin duda, ante un fotolibro que no hay que dejar escapar. Un fotolibro que habla por sí solo, como deberían hacer todos. Lleno de psicología humana, tan profunda como sutil, tan bella como oscura. Si tenemos en cuenta de que cada proyecto artístico nos habla de la vida interior del autor, descubriremos un alma llena de amor por la belleza y por lo misterioso; algo que, sin necesidad de decir nada más, ya queremos tener con nosotros.(...)” Francisca Pageo&nbsp;(click for full article) “(...) Relationships and all that they engender – genesis, growth, possibly also decline, and the specter of cessation – are ever-present themes in this book, which provides both visual depth and tactile pleasure. This is a volume that can have a strong effect on the viewer: it is a journey to the interior via the exterior. An important work of fine art photography that engages the viewer/reader in a variety of ways – visually, textually, and viscerally.

photographs&nbsp;that&nbsp;delve into the profound relationship between space and form, inviting viewers viewers into a quiet realm of reflection and introspection. The project began during an artist residency at the Museu da Luz in Mourão, Portugal, in 2017. What started as an exploration of light, shadow, and space, over time evolved into a boundless inquiry into the landscapes we inhabit, the architectures we construct, and the human compulsion to impose order on the natural world. Remaining deliberately open-ended, "Geometries of Silence" unfolds like an unfinished puzzle, to which new pieces are continually added—each fragment enriching the whole.The current images are fragments of a broader visual narrative, designed to immerse the observer in an interpretive experience. Minimalist in composition, the works see the artist&nbsp;replacing the most common&nbsp;figurative elements&nbsp;and staged photos,&nbsp;with structural lines, rich textures, pronounced vanishing points, and architectural transitions like entrances and passageways. Marked by a decadent and symbolic style, the monochromatic palette amplifies the perception of silence and stillness within the scenes, urging viewers to uncover latent beauty in seemingly empty spacesdevoid of human presence.Through "Geometries of Silence", Moreira challenges the viewer's expectations, offering a dialogue between undefined territories and the constructive potential of emptiness. The carefully refined compositions—characterized by precise lines, deep contrasts, and evocative shadows—create an introspective atmosphere where silence becomes a medium for new meanings.

The feeling of being utterly suspended in time, beyond past and future - this belongs to many, perhaps even to all sensations of beauty." - Peter Zumthor State of Mind is a photographic series, and ultimately a book, about the individual quality of mysterious strangers. The images were captured over a period of several years traveling in countries such as Japan, Portugal, Hungary, Malaysia, Spain, South-Korea, Romania, Russia, Taiwan - and what emerged is a visual narrative on the poetic quality of individuality and what it means to be lost in thoughts. The State of Mind series is about the “thinking moments” and the uncertain atmosphere surrounding the people and places encountered on the way. The book is a limited edition of 500 copies and can be acquired online through this website or at selected bookshops.

That’s a fancy way of saying that when we zone out and look like no one’s home; the mind is at work doing a million things at once or not. We have all fallen victim to that slow burn of a brain haze where life is happening all around us and our rhythm falls out of place and we are transported deep within ourselves to parts unknown. State of Mind is a book by Nuno Moreira that captures exactly that."F-Stop Magazine, review by Richard Storm (click for full article) "(...) this is a book that has some hidden secrets. Each time you pick it up, there is something new that you’re able to learn. Maybe the readers learn a little about Nuno himself, and maybe a little about his subjects, and maybe as we shall see, just a little about themselves as well. There is feeling and emotion in the pages and it’s not something that you are able to appreciate on first viewing. This to me is a good sign." Art Photo Feature, review by Tristan Parker (click for full article) "For some photos if the subject isn’t wearing a mask than their face is obscured due to the shutter speed, a shadow, or a choice of framing. But less literally and more telling, it is the masks people put on once aware of the photographer’s presence that can be attributed again to this theme of loneliness. In his travels to these vastly different countries I think you will see that loneliness is the only universal. We all put on masks to face the world; however there are these moments of lost thought that we are left unmasked."Japan Camera Hunter, review by Jesse Freeman (click for full article) "What is perhaps initially surprising however is that the images do not indicate the diversity of these locations, but rather the opposite. The book brings them together under a unifying umbrella where continents, countries and cities melt into a statement on the humanity of their populations. The people here are shown as a series of individuals or small groups. Sometimes we just glimpse their shadows, backs or reflections, sometimes just traces of their existence. A foot steps in to a railway carriage, shadows pass each other on a busy (we assume) pavement, a woman struggles with an umbrella in a sea of snowy tyre tracks or passengers gaze blankly from train windows. There is a lot of travelling going on. People walking the streets, in stations, cafes and trains. There are roads, pavements, walkways and waiting areas. Through constant change and movement Moreira has found a unity in these divergent peoples. Perhaps through his own experiences of travelling these represent stills within a continuous journey. We do however see the diversity of the individuals, each with their own thoughts and in these silent moments."A Kick up the Arts, review by Martin Jenner (click for full article) "There’s a lot of contemplating going on in this book. People are just standing, both feet planted on the ground, often in what seems like an odd place to just stop and stand. These people appear completely consumed by whatever thoughts have invaded their minds. It stops me in my tracks and it’s as if I attempt to read their minds. I will never know what they’re thinking, but that doesn’t stop my curiosity from trying."The New Frame, review by Eric Gunderson&nbsp; Testimonials from artistic community "This is one way photographs look like when they’re worth looking at." Charles Harbutt (Photographer, former president of Magnum) "Nuno's images are gorgeous, intensely personal, beautifully abstract, and totally cinematic. They're like stills from a classic film that doesn't exist, or memories from a life-changing journey you never took." Gary Hustwit (Filmmaker, director of “Helvetica”) “A very beautiful book. Very sensitive observations of people in dialogue with their surroundings. Classic black and white studies inspired by light, shadow and people.” Vaughan Oliver (Designer, v23) “This book is telling the mysterious story about our common life. The images are catching the rare moment between the daily dreaming and neverending expecting of something: maybe love, maybe old memories, human touch, sunshine or next bus, who knows (...) It is just a tender and discreet message about us, people - not too dramatic, not too sad or depressive - because it never lacks the kindness and hope.” Sarah Saudek (Photographer) "The images in State of Mind whisper the threat of an action the viewer can only ever guess at. Mysterious, evocative, poetic, full of brilliant light and glorious shadows which expand and contract like the space between breaths." Lydia Lunch (Musician) “What a pleasure to be asked to see, feel and touch the mind of Nuno Moreira via his photographs for State of Mind. Stopped, felt, seen, alerted, and looked into...momentary miracles and stories haikued forever/instantly and then another... Worlds lived by blinking eyes and living spaciously, quickly and then gone.” Linda Montano (Performance Artist) "Excellent, excellent work that (to me) is dreamlike and surreal." Richard Sandler (Photographer and Filmmaker) “In a megapolis such as Tokyo the line between natural and artificial has evaporated in most areas... Except for that of light and time. We are conditioned to not differentiate between these polarities when we are inside of these environments, yet the transitions and experiences between them frame our lives and memories. Moreira's perspective has the ability to capture that temporal framing. Amongst a billion LED, phosphorescent, fluorescent, neon, flood, halogen and fluorescents we find lonely individuals within the pool of time and experience, living in a way not so removed from four or five generations before them.” Stephen F.

After many sketches the project grew into a photographic documentation of different interior landscapes and situations.ZONA explores both a mental and physical space - an attempt to represent the unconscious mind and the symbolic nature of archetypes. Always, with a heavy dose of poetry involved.Nuno's previous work, "State of Mind", dealt with people absorbed and lost in thoughts, in "ZONA" there's a necessity to delve deeper into this particular arena and see how we think and what are our fundamental fears and emotions.The narrative of this series follows a live-performance and is somewhat similar to a dream experience – one feels both familiarity, intimacy and strangeness. The result is a sensuous, quiet and dark book, delivering images with a memorable cinematic quality.Comprised of photographs and exclusive texts written by José Luís Peixoto, "ZONA" comes in a beautiful cloth-bound limited edition of 300 copies and can be acquired online through this website or at selected bookshops. <img width="130" height="40" width_o="130" height_o="40" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/546bc6214f521b28645ae2f8ed3c0cf6a31f2e48a3810354c02b497461ac26f9/orderhere.png" data-mid="67263093" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/130/i/546bc6214f521b28645ae2f8ed3c0cf6a31f2e48a3810354c02b497461ac26f9/orderhere.png" /> Exhibitions 2018 - ENFOLA - Faro, Portugal 2016 - Casa da Escrita - Coimbra, Portugal2016 - Travessa da Ermida - Lisbon, Portugal2016 - Caravel Art Center - Madeira, Portugal <img width="800" height="800" width_o="800" height_o="800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/329914fc4669f5730202dc2903f0b278653314228c63f97277abc4023d6848fe/02_2.jpg" data-mid="8205681" border="0" data-scale="30" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/800/i/329914fc4669f5730202dc2903f0b278653314228c63f97277abc4023d6848fe/02_2.jpg" /> Book Reviews "(...) The images have the precision of a dream, the details of a clinical precision that refer to surrealist experiments (tongue and scissors that can not fail to remind the eye of An Andalusian Dog by Buñuel). This book explores the unconscious and guides us without knowing what the outcome will be. Some images, stronger than others (but this is an individual choice), will remain printed in our mind. We do not really understand the narration, but snatches of memory keep coming to that memory makes emerge this impalpable unconscious. We discover ourselves, here to tell our dream, unable to decipher all the signs. Emerges finally what is hard to say but which, brick by brick, built our personality in the individual awareness, but also, and this is very present in this book, in its relation to the other. Nuno Moreira dare sketch here the assertion that we only exist by this relation to the other and thus the loss of this relation is our own loss, the loss of this individuality. (...)"who needs another photoblog, review by Christer Ek (click for full article) "(...) The book comes with words by José Luís Peixoto that help us navigate through the story Moreira tells through his pictures. It's very much a joint effort. It's a gentle story, but not the most transparent of stories, it's not a come-and-sit-by-the-fire-and-I'll-tell-you-a-story story, or a bedtime story, or a page turner, spine-tingler or tear-jerker of a story. Instead it's a story that you take on the photographer's terms. You have to adjust to his way of seeing, their way of thinking to understand what is happening, and this takes time and effort."Collin Pantall's blog (click for full article) "(...) ZONA, like a dream, is a personal experience. It is like when you wake up and try to explain a dream you just had to your significant other…and it all comes irrational if not absurd. The experience is always disappointing in the lack of lucidity that you yourself felt but fail to convey. Experience it yourself. (...) Japan Camera Hunter, review by Jesse Freeman (click for full article) "(...) There is something more searing about black &amp; white, something more otherworldly, a better way of telling a story, a way of acclimating movement, curve, form, to text. The models use simple movements – a touching of a shoulder, the extension of a hand… Much like in the altar of a church, or in the making of icons, there is absolutely no detail that is superfluous."A Miscellarny of Tasteful..., review by Rudy Carrera (click for full article) "(...) Moreira’s new book may seem miles away from his previous book “State Of Mind”, but I feel it’s a lot closer than you would imagine. State of Mind had a simple design, the street photography images were from various places he had visited and he challenged the viewer to enter his state of mind. But the key element here is that it comes from a deeper place than the usual street photography work. It wasn’t necessarily about the scene he was capturing, but more about why he was interesting in capturing it in the first place.With ZONA, more care has been put into the book’s design and it is an even deeper psychological experience. The photography reminds me a lot of Eikoh Hosoe’s “Man and Woman” work. Abstract, theatre-like story telling, high contrast black and whites, simple but clever, sensual and full of metaphorical meanings. Peixoto’s text is also the perfect accompaniment. The images get your started and the words ensure you’re kept on track.I’m not fully certain of the true intention of its story, and I suppose that’s one of its strengths. Individual interpretation is encouraged. But here’s my take on it. I feel it’s a sort of schizophrenic journey. Conversing with oneself. Going in and out of self recognition. Battling and accepting inner demons. I’m not sure if it’s actual schizophrenia or just the feelings everyone experiences when faced with a difficult situation, but I don’t think that matters so much.I’ll be honest, I’m not usually up for this type of work, or at least, it isn’t the type of thing I go out looking for. However, I was very curious to see how Moreira would go about presenting his new work in comparison to his previous. I suppose I shouldn’t be comparing the 2 at all. Too many photographers box themselves into a genre/style and stick with it. It can get repetitive and boring. Venturing out into other areas and expressing thoughts and ideas in a different manner can be a very helpful way to grow and evolve. I see this happening with Moreira. ZONA is, in my opinion, a step in the right direction and I do hope his next book provides us with something equally intriguing and different once again. (...)"The New Frame, review by Eric Gunderson ZONA - A choreography of the psyche by Elsa Garcia A dream-room where the words don't emerge and the emptiness becomes overwhelming. Inside, the presence of the body as a work procedure. It is the body that defines the interior and exterior space and it is the body that represents the limit and tangency with reality in a gestural poetry that fades away in the penumbra. In the time lapse of a day a group of images start to appear. The ambiance, close and intimate, slowly gets contextualized in a panic room that allows urges, instincts, organic impulses and unconscious desires to be foreseen. The story is confined to a space and represents the mental room of the unconscious; it visually disturbs the viewer by the expressive force of images simultaneously unsettling, delicate and poetic. Nuno Moreira is present and omnipresent persona in this process of construction that reveals images straight from the unconscious. Simultaneously voyeur, the artist incarnates in the object, which is his work, the model, dreams, nightmares, anguishes and anxieties. All this grants to this sequence of images an extreme physicality. The basis and ground for the visual concept comes close to the cinematography of Tarkovsky, Bela Tarr or Bergman. ZONA encloses a number of fears and dreams springing from an interior universe, by all means difficult to transpose into images. These are for sure key-ideas of an interior world full of absence and emptiness which appeared at a time the author was reading about Jung and the representation of archetypes. "The idea of the abyss fascinates me in all aspects, there is almost a complete necessity of understanding what lies beyond the veil", reveals the author. From the Jung studies, drawings and words appeared, which later gave birth to images. According to Jung "dreams are impartial products of the unconscious psyche, they show us the natural truth with no ornaments". “For Jung, the oneiric symbols, as for that matter any other symbol, are attempts to individualise the anima, the persona, the shadow and other archetypes, and to unify them in a balanced and harmonious whole". Photographed in Tokyo and finished in Lisbon, ZONA represents a continuity of State of Mind, the previous work of Nuno Moreira. In it were presented photographies of people thinking, resulting of several years of traveling. From an archive of isolated people in different situations appears a common pattern: people absent-minded from reality. In the end, both series portray interior landscapes only represented in different stylistic ways. A precisión dun soño: Zona, de Nuno Moreira por Lito Caramés As sombras dan esplendor á fotografía. ZONA, o novo traballo de Nuno Moreira, vén sendo a precisión dun soño. A fotografía, esa disciplina tan nova se se compara co debuxo ou coa pintura, xurdiu para copiar a realidade, para dar fe de fisionomías, paisaxes, estampas urbanas. Pero logo transcendeu o rol reprodutor e apostou pola creatividade, a imaxe descoñecida, o instante inmóbil; por buscar a novidade nos encadres, exposicións e velocidades. Fotografía é unha verba composta de dous vocábulos gregos e vén querendo significar: describir a luz. Comprende o espazo que cabe na cativa fiestra da máquina de retratar, o velado espazo onde as tebras esculpen volumes de luz sobre mármores de sombra. As instantáneas de ZONA, o libro que vén de publicar Nuno Moreira (Lisboa, 1982) son imaxes en branco e negro. E tamén en 3D, polo efecto dese negro que dá volume, por esa luz enfocada en dermes e superficies que esculpe os sentidos. Cada fotografía de ZONA propende os interrogantes ocultos na luz, incrustados na escuridade. Imaxes creativas, inquietantes. Esta serie bebe da tradición retratística, occidental e oriental. Algunhas das instantáneas lembran os claroscuros de Hosoe, outro admirador de Antoni Gaudí. Desde a visión occidental as fotografías de ZONA están inzadas de baleiros. Non son tal. Moreira non sabe que é o horror vacui; pouco lle importa. Os pretendidos baleiros son escuridades que reflicten, espellos de alma para teimas, para incertezas. A Moreira non lle pon medo a soidade dun corpo fronte á negritude. Tampouco teme a verdade que discorre polas veas da madeira que conforman unha mesa. Moreira limítase a angazar o karesansui con esmero e símbolos, con intención e método. As instantáneas de ZONA son enigmáticas; regresan dunha noite antiga. Rostros, silencio, escuro que tanto di. Clamor de vida. ZONA, un libro de espazos para a intimidade En ZONA (2015) Nuno Moreira enfía as nosas memorias, asalta as brasas que carrexamos de brinquedos infantís, de lecturas, de amores; golpea as nosas lembranzas con suxestivas imaxes de rexistros inconscientes, alí onde non temos defensas. Ao pé da madalena de Proust. ZONA baséase no espazo interior do autor, nas zonas mentais onde o subconsciente tropeza con simbolismos, con categorías estéticas. Por iso é unha obra de arte. ZONA é a precisión dun soño. Non é, por contra, un libro de historias a contar ao pé do lume nas morosas noites de inverno. O autor narra pensamentos, espazos que se reservan aos recunchos non visibles do cotián. Moreira bota man da imaxinación para elaborar un discurso coherente –enfiado coas hedonistas verbas de Peixoto–, que viaxa no transporte do voyeurismo e que ambiciona apelar á inventiva da persoa lectora e transportala ao país das palabras e da imaxe cinemática; a outra realidade que excede obxectos captados pola pequena fiestra da cámara. Outros mundos que se intúen polas voltas de altares ou lupanares. ZONA é, de momento, o último traballo de Nuno Moreira, continuación doutros anteriores como State of Mind (2010-2013). As fotografías de ZONA mostran corpos, mobles, arquitectura espida –sempre interiores, sempre enmarcados no negro luminoso–, para en realidade confesar pesadelos, estados de ánimo que Nuno Moreira retén nas superficies físicas coas que tropeza a luz, coas que brincan as sombras. As súas estadías no Xapón aproxímano a manifestacións estéticas desa cultura oriental, pois o corpo das modelos que velan nas instantáneas conduce a escenas de teatro nô, o teatro clásico xaponés onde os actores non levan maquillaxe. As imaxes de ZONA tamén son iso: valentes; esencialismos. ZONA é un libro de artista editado cun esmero especial. Sincero, sensual. O deseñador gráfico que é Nuno Moreira investiu moitos esforzos tamén na consecución do resultado final: o xogo de follas brancas e follas negras, distintos tipos de papel, a alternancia de fotografías e escritos de Peixoto nos tres idiomas, as cubertas grises de austeridade eremita. ZONA é un libro manual. Manual no sentido orixinario da verba: ten o tamaño dunha man estendida. Dicía Alberto Giacometti –o escultor que reducía as súas figuras á mínima expresión corporal– que desde tempos prehistóricos as pezas de arte eran manuais, pequenas, transportables. ZONA bebe da historia da arte, por iso ten o tamaño que ten. Un feixe de impresións máxicas. Mans abertas, si, aves de doce voar. Andar de sombras. Na súa formación Nuno Moreira casou co cinema. A sétima arte motiva a creación de Moreira en ZONA. A imaxe na que as tesoiras están a punto de seccionar a lingua leva de contado a Buñuel e as súas fantasías recollidas en O Can Andaluz; e a Man Ray no óvalo da face que se mostra/elide após dos carnosos labios. Noutros casos é unha lembranza, un decorado xeral que anima a imaxinar a Nuno con ollares reflexivos, ansias intimistas e mesmo inquietantes a modo dun Bergman. Contemplando unha e outra vez as fotografías de ZONA, repasando a serie de primeirísimos planos, de faces e paredes, de mesas lacadas, de obxectos cotiáns, ao final do percorrido queda un sabor oriental, aroma a sushi, textura de fideo de arroz; unha atmosfera interior, velada, que (salvando as cores) fai choscadelas co filme Fa yeung nin wa (Desexando amar, 2000), de Wong Kar-Wai. As imaxes de ZONA esvaen o tempo. Não sei se é sonho, se realidade / Se uma mistura de sonho e vida Din os expertos que o ouro –mormente o pan de ouro– dá unha luminosidade soberbia, que potencia calquera espazo por pouca luz que ilumine un lugar. Os monxes bizantinos, antes de elaborar unha icona nova na que porían pan de ouro de fondo para informar de que a figura sacra que ían pintar residía noutra dimensión, pasaban un tempo de preparación con xexúns e dietas especiais, dispóndose para a comunicación cos seres sagrados. Nuno Moreira instala nas fotografías de ZONA fondos negros. Potentes, lumínicos. Non se trata de negro negador. É negro resplandecente. Usa os negros nas súas fotografías como os monxes empregaban o pan de ouro. Nuno Moreira un asceta penitente, zen ou franciscano, na consecución da icona moderna que é a súa obra: a fotografía. Coas instantáneas de ZONA estaría ben contento Junichirô Tanizaki, o escritor xaponés que dedicou ensaios a gabar a sombra. Alá polos anos 30 do pasado século, Tanizaki –xa daquela– laiábase da aposta que no seu país se estaba a facer polas tecnoloxías occidentais, mormente polo que máis deploraba: a iluminación eléctrica. A excesiva iluminación eléctrica. No seu libro Eloxio da sombra, Tanizaki fártase de enumerar os ámbitos da vida cotiá xaponesa onde a escasa iluminación proporciona misterio, atractivo, fantasía. A súa pluma poética canta as excelencias dun mosteiro preto de Kyoto, dun restaurante onde comer misho supón un acto de fe. Agora estaría encantado de coñecer un occidental, un portugués que vive no seu país e que aprecia as sombras, que interioriza o sabi, a fraxilidade, o efémero; a beleza de que nada é para sempre, nin perfecto. Cada fotografía un ritual, un verso. Sentidas costas, brancura sobre negros. Un crisantemo. Hai moitas sombras en ZONA. Son sombras que acompañan a Nuno Moreira, que medran na mochila que –coma todos– carga o retratista consigo. Sombras que lle chegan desde os lenzos de Caravaggio –corpos brancos e fondos negros; tenebrismo–, desde as leccións de Rembrandt, desde os martirios de L’Espagnoletto. Hai sombras que estenden os seus mantos desde o Chiado e desde a Alfama, entre queixas de fado e peiteo de guitarra portuguesa, sombras nos ollares de quen senta na Brasileira e risca os máis saudosos versos: Nun meio-dia de fim de Primavera / tive un sonho como uma fotografia. ZONA é o traballo dun artesán. Cómpre moito oficio para apostar pola escuridade, polas sombras, e non temer os espesos silencios que berran desde o fondo das luminosas negritudes que definen o delicado ollar do fotógrafo. Se non fose pedantería mesmo veñen ganas de emular a José Saramago e dicir de Nuno Moreira o que el dixo hai anos de Gonçalo Tavares (cando este último tiña a idade actual de Nuno): Não tem o direito de (fotografar) tão bem apenas aos 35 anos: dá vontade de lhe bater!
