The world is accelerating its digital transformation in many areas. In that regard, «Analog Parenthesis» is a way of slowing down to regain some perspective in everything we do. With these strange times we live in, the photographer felt the reflect on what could be of the world after the pandemic. As an IT engineer, he saw a drastic change coming in every field of our life, where adaptation will be a required skill to navigate the modern world. Whether it could be an opportunity in some ways, it will be challenging on many other levels. The more the author thought about this ultra-fast change, the more nostalgic he became. As a reaction to that paradoxical concept, he sold his digital camera and got an old manual analogue camera. From his point of view, colour film rolls were the necessary tools that incarnate the nostalgia itself, and would allow to navigate through time. All that was left was hitting the streets with a Leica M6, and some 35mm Kodak films.
