Historic Street View is a photomontage series that combines archival photography with current Google Street View captures to reconstruct urban scenes and reveal how streets, buildings, and landscapes in Tucuman have changed over time.
The project is built around a simple but powerful idea: placing past and present inside the same frame to create an immediate visual reading of urban transformation, heritage, memory, and territory. This comparison shows not only what changed, but also what remains, what disappeared, and how the city’s visual identity evolved.
The series combines archival research, geolocation, documentary selection, editing, and visual composition in a format that is accessible, contemporary, and easy to share. More than a set of images, Historic Street View works as a cultural communication piece that makes historical archive material more visible through a direct and comparative visual language.
Historic Street View is directly connected to Viejo Tucumán, a project focused on organizing visual heritage, historical photography, and urban memory in a navigable digital platform. While Viejo Tucumán builds the archive and its context, Historic Street View transforms that work into a more immediate and comparative visual experience.
Within the portfolio, the project demonstrates a valuable combination of historical sensitivity, visual judgment, territorial research, and control over still imagery. It also reinforces a line of work where archive material, visual culture, and digital tools come together to produce content with documentary value and editorial strength.
