Abraham Votroba Photographs

INNER JOURNEY

In 2009 we set out on a roadtrip from the city of Posadas (in the province of Misiones) to the province of Corrientes in the northeast of Argentina. It was not a peaceful journey: I accompanied my father in the uncertainty of his health.
The unsteady days, the kilometers, the hours and the images became a metaphor of my inner self. They were stills of time, perceived from the moving road as if the only thing real were the birds and the power lines. The swallows who escorted us gave me hope.
I photographed the landscapes I saw from inside the vehicle, one after another.
