Tratamiento artístico de personajes folclóricos representativos mediante innovaciones técnico/estéticas en la fotografía

Abstract

The following project of the unit of curricular integration seeks to generate artistic work, based on the appropriation of folkloric characters representative of Ecuador, such:/ the Diablo Huma, the Diablo de Píllaro, and the Yumbo Mate. Through the process of researchcreation, the narrative is then used to detail how the representation of each of the aforementioned characters was carried out filling a void found in the lack of exploitation, diffusion, visibility, and creation of work or artistic product based on the characters; as well as their relationship in both a personal and academic way concerning the artist. It also details the planning process, creation of the composition, and final resolution of the project, by using photography as a base technique for this and its technical-aesthetic innovations in recent years. This includes the use and construction from scratch of a cyclorama, the appropriateness of space for it, the use of LED lights, the integration of projection through a projector as an innovative compositional element, different techniques of digital retouching and how this set has enormous creative potential that has not been fully exploited.
