In this article we propose to reflect about a number of photographs from the series Adjustment and repression (M.A.F.I.A., 2017), in perspective with a group of images from El Cordobazo by Isaac Silbermanas in 1969. Since the recognition of anachronistic features in these representations it develops a theoretical inquiry about the constitution of space-time that shows up in photograph images. For this reason, we impulse ourselves to think in order to magic (Flusser, 2019), performativity (Soto Calderón, 2020) and fiction (Dubois, 2016) as concepts that get into specific image aspects, and that lead us to trace possible intersections, non-intersections or questions about the ways photography constitutes fictional representations of reality.Downloads
