Carousel Drop #1

Submitter: Hugo Faz
Date Processed: 24/12/1975
Location: Natal, RN, Brazil
Original Artist: Silomar Godinho Slide Notes: "Taken by my father of my mother during her Christmas visit to Natal, northeastern Brazil, where he was assigned to work for two years, before they were married. She lived far away in the southeast. He used the camera he bought in his USA visit one year earlier. My father developed Alzheimer's disease at an early age (60) and has been in my mother's and my care since. He can no longer tell why he had been to the places and the events pictured in these photographs, but he recalled several of the images themselves when we projected them on the TV after scanning his 300+ slides."

Edition: 1/1

Carousel Curated aims to become the world’s largest archive of found slide film. This ongoing catalog documents the pre-internet photographed human experience. Before the digital age, color positive slide film was used by professional and amateur photographers alike to display their work in slideshows. These images have been recovered through a global effort to archive photographs that would otherwise have been lost to dust and age in attics, antique shops, and flea markets.
