Tango Love No. 1 - Photography on Framed Canvas
Inspired by our Creative Director’s TEDx ‘Biohacking Your Creative Self’, this collection is a reflection of Relmi Damiano’s compelling life journey.
In this insightful talk, she shares the challenges and triumphs faced as a young artist grappling with dyslexia. Relmi goes on to emphasize the significance of imagination and creativity in our daily lives, highlighting how each of us can harness the potential of our brains and bodies to ‘biohack our creativity’. The series highlights authentic film photographs captured in 2004 when Relmi was 14 years old.
In 2004, during my visit to Argentina to spend time with family, a meaningful and unexpected gift came my way. My grandfather handed me his cherished 1975 35mm Canon AE-1 with his 50mm F1.4 Lens. Filled with excitement, I embarked on a photographic exploration of the ancient suburbs of Buenos Aires, capturing anything that caught my eye.
In the heart of San Telmo's cobblestone streets, I encountered a young busking couple passionately dancing the Tango. Their skill and fervor were remarkable, as they poured their hearts into the performance to earn a little extra income for life's necessities. Despite the challenges of dancing on the uneven, broken stones, their focus on each other was divine.
The sight of their unwavering commitment, undeterred by the difficulties they faced, was incredibly touching. Both of them, with worn-out heels and genuine expressions, exuded authenticity. This profound moment left a lasting impact on me, inspiring a personal commitment to embrace integrity and maintain focus in all aspects of life.
Although I returned to Buenos Aires in 2006 and 2010, I regretfully couldn't locate the same couple or witness the same intensity of passion that had moved me on that unforgettable day.
