PHOTOGRAPHY

Photography has been an integral part of Momentos World since its very first production in 2011, when the inaugural performance “Wien, die Stadt des Kommens, Gehens und ewigen Bleibens” (Vienna, the city of arriving, departing and eternal permanence) was created and presented in Vienna.
​
From the beginning, photography has functioned as both an artistic and documentary medium, forming the visual memory of Momentos World and documenting its evolving transnational artistic processes across Europe and Brazil.
​
Beyond documentation, photography has developed into an independent artistic field within Momentos World, generating its own projects, including visual concepts, posters, publication covers and exhibition formats that accompany and extend the performative work.
​
These photographic practices have been presented in multiple contexts and cities, including Vienna, Rio de Janeiro, Curitiba and Brasília, forming an expanding visual archive of Momentos World’s artistic trajectory.

5 SENTIDOS SENSES SINNE – EXHIBITION SERIES
​
In celebration of its 10-year anniversary, Momentos World developed its most extensive photographic exhibition project to date: “5 SENTIDOS SENSES SINNE”.
​
This exhibition is directly connected to the 10-year documentary publication of the same name and presents a curated selection of images from more than three decades of choreographic and performative work by Vinicius.
​
It offers audiences a visual journey through key moments of Momentos World’s artistic productions, capturing the ephemeral nature of performance through photography.
​
As a traveling exhibition, 5 SENTIDOS SENSES SINNE has been presented in Brazil, Austria and Germany, including its first presentation supported by Linha Cultura of the São Paulo Metro and subsequent presentations in Europe, where it was supported by cultural institutions in Münster and exhibited with an expanded selection of photographic works.
​
Visual Memory & Artistic Archive
​
Photography within Momentos World functions as a cultural archive and a visual research practice.
It preserves ephemeral artistic processes, translates performance into visual memory, and contributes to the long-term documentation of transnational artistic collaboration.
​
In this sense, Momentos Photography is not only a documentation tool, but an essential component of the Artistic Cloud Centre — transforming artistic creation into a visible, accessible and evolving cultural memory.
