They are called invisible, but we are not talking about people with superpowers. A gift that does not carry responsibility, except for us, the people that gave it to them. No one is exempt from it. Any attempt to forget creates a poorly feigned blindness that makes us more ignorant, and above all, less human.
We make such a huge effort to not see them, that at the end, they cease to exist. Taking photographs is my way of giving a leading role to the ignored and turning the ignorant into something immaterial. - Javier Corso
