"Lugar Onde o Tempo Sofre" is the first book by photographer Marcelo Costa and the second in the Photographic Essays Collection by Fotô Editorial. Edited and written by Eder Chiodetto and Fabiana Bruno, and designed by Milena Galli, the book marks Costa's trajectory in the field of experimental photography. Mixing appropriated images of ex-votos and landscapes turned upside down by the action of man, the photographs appear shrouded in an ochre haze, the result of strategies the artist employs to reinforce both the cadence of time that runs out and the usury of the photographic support. The inscription of man in nature and the belief in the divine echo in the vulnerability of photography - which is also finite, despite what we have been led to believe.

Marcelo Costa [São Paulo, SP, 1968] is a graduate in Veterinary Medicine from UNESP Botucatu, in Photography from Escola Panamericana de Arte and a postgraduate in Photography from FAAP. He was one of the winners of the 2016 Mundie Photography Award, besides being selected for the XIX Encuentros Abiertos - Festival de la Luz, Buenos Aires, Argentina, the 47th Piracicaba Contemporary Art Salon Contraprova vol. 2 - Paço das Artes - São Paulo (SP); VI Contemporary Photography Diary Award, Belém (PA) among others. Lugar onde o Tempo Sufre is his first book.
In "Lugar Onde o Tempo Sofre", Marcelo Costa invites us to desecrate images, dislodging them from the place where they are circumscribed to a certain social function in order to endow their symbolic unfoldings with freedom. In this Place where Time Suffers, the corrupted landscape and the feminine in the face of existential pain strain photography's capacity for emphatic representation and move at disproportionate speed toward a disconcerting notion of time.
