Hello Hivelovers, today I bring you a documentary photography studio that I have been working on for some time.

Culture as a social fact is more than the repetition of patterns and customs over time in which social groups participate. The imposed fact of certain customs that are assumed by an eminent invasion of the market is also presented.

Telephony, since its massification, was perhaps one of the most important technological advances of the last century. Today we continue talking on the phone but through our cell phones.

Public telephone booths in Venezuela have long since stopped working. The reasons are diverse. From the technological advances that made its continuity obsolete to the disinterest of users in focusing on new trends.

For me it is a reflection of longing, melancholy for something that already was, existed and will no longer be. It was fun to swipe the 20 bs card to call a friend or my house in order to ask my mom's permission and get home a little later.

There were some phones that certain characters had after working at CANTV; Anonymous telephone company in Venezuela could rig the line so that an entire community could talk for free for hours and hours.

Today these huts are found in complete oblivion and neglect. The chapel of the Catholic Church has more activity during the year than the telephones.

These objects forgotten in time today become part of our historical and collective memory. Perhaps one way to keep them alive is through photography as a document.

Currently I find myself looking for those places and spaces forgotten in time. A few years ago I made a publication about a building in whose lobby there is a pneumatic mail or message center that worked with a network of tubes where an air system blew air to carry the mail to the different offices in the building.

Greetings, I hope you are well and above all that you have remembered this golden age of public telephones.
