The present research seeks to rescue and identify, from the point of view of the image,
the urban transformations in the city of Santarém (PA), and to assemble a photo album
resulting from these changes. The objectives include investigating the image as a form of
mediation with the world; produce a way of seeing the city through visual montage and rescue
from the archives of Balaio Santareno, by Emir Bemerguy, and in the work of local authors,
stories and events about the city, connecting memories associated with the time interval
between the images. The photographs in the collection show the urban edge of Santarém (PA)
in the 1940s and 1970s. The same places were photographed again, resulting in comparative
images with a look at the past, in the photographs by Vidal Bemerguy, and a contemporary
look, with an interval time period of about 50 years. The investigation questions which city
we currently have, within the reach of our eyes, and the events that led to this design. Seeing
through images and their use as a result, and not only as a support for research, is what is
proposed, in the light of authors who reflect on the act of looking and the process of
apprehending the world through imagination, and who deal with the technical image
(photography) as a means of producing new ways of seeing. The montage as a methodological
resource allows the result open to the spectator in the construction of their own image of the
city.
