NYCTEROY

A visual survey of the Centro district. The 'photographs' are actually screen captures of textured photogrammetry models in an orthographic view. The models themselves aim to capture and preserve the visual intricacies of the district, which will hopefully experience a period of investment and urban policymaking in the future.

The title of the series, Nycteroy, is just one of the many variations found between the city's current name, Niterói, and its much-debated original Indigenous form. However, this specific iteration is only used as the name of a local cemetery/memorial site. Although the district is undeniably underutilized and in structural decay, it remains very much alive and constantly changing. Many of the photo-measured sites have already undergone transformations, altering their appearance.
