Resumo: This paper takes up the photographic work Lost Angels (2014), by Lee Jefries, which portraits people living on the streets in large urban centers, to think about how the effects of the structure in photographic image constitute a contingent relationship of alterity. Through these portraits of vulnerable people, Jeffries signs ways to summon the look articulated between the desired codification and the regularization of the aesthetic dimension. In this duality, the images are examined based on the possible repercussions of the modes of figuration that trigger a certain visual delight according to the ways in which the presence of people is called upon. We reflect on how documentary photography could offer visual operators in the topics of human portrait and what is its specific designation in these subjects’ exposures in a plastic and conversational perspective of the image.

Através dos retratos de sujeitos vulneráveis, Jeffries assina modos de convocação do olhar articulados entre a codificação desejada e a regularização da dimensão estética. Nessa dualidade particular, as imagens são examinadas a partir das repercussões possíveis em regimes de figuração que acionam certo deleite visual conforme modos de convocação da presença dos sujeitos. Discutimos como a fotografia documental ainda poderia oferecer operadores visuais nas tópicas do retrato humano e qual sua designação específica nas exposições destes sujeitos em uma perspectiva plástica e conversacional da imagem. PEPG COS-PUC-SP2020-10-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/galaxia/article/view/45024Galaxia; No. 45 (2020)GALÁxIA.
