Blanco Universo

exploring scenarios altered by the "mental void" and its consequences on mental health through the construction of a visual diary.

Blanco Universo is a visual diary that invites us to explore, through photography, the scenarios altered by the "mental void". This condition causes a disconnection with the environment, makes it difficult to recognize ideas and recover memories in everyday life. Through instant images, forms of perceptual emptiness are captured and the impact of the therapeutic method "grounding" is analyzed. This method, which focuses attention on nearby stimuli such as what is seen, heard and felt, highlights its importance in avoiding persistent disconnection and its consequences on mental health.

The final compositions refer to the perception of void placed on the left and to the documentation of the therapeutic method "grounding" where I represent my instant perception of objects and places.

"mental void" is one of the most common mental conditions and can contribute to other health problems such as anxiety and depression. With this project I aim to raise awareness about the importance of talking about mental health through the creative-artistic field of photography.
