'I Would Rather Not Go Back To The Old House' by Pedro Ventura




‘I Would Rather Not Go Back To The Old House’ is a project observed through the medium of photography which allows me to not only deal with my feelings and emotions regarding my romantic experience but also to document them. It is a project that supports a cathartic process and a focus on an auto-ethnographic approach to research. It is a story of a failed love inspired by my own personal life experiences. Composed of six photos, each with its own meaning and interpretation. The project is explored, through a mixture of my personal narrative and the help of Rider-Waite tarot cards aesthetic and meaning, more specifically from the Major Arcana - The Fool, The Empress, The Lovers, Death, The Hanged man and The Moon - represents my inner thoughts and different stages of happiness and grief when going through a romantic situation.
