Summary
The book Fosa Común (Mass grave) contains a series of photos of exhumations of abandoned graves. For decades Rodrigo Opazo Cousiño (Santiago, 1964) has persistently been documenting death, marginality, loneliness, dispossession of individuals through his photographic series. Every Wednesday, from January to November 2019, he traveled to the Colina Cemetery to document the exhumations that took place at 10 am. There are 12 bodies of different ages and causes of death. Each body has 3 images: the first, an overhead shot of the body after it has been unearthed; the second image is an open plastic bag, with bones and belongings; and the third image is the closed bag with body data, ready to be placed inside the mass grave. The book also contains a log of each of the dead. The book is red referring to the color of the old passport. In addition to this, the book goes inside a green plastic envelope. The design is by Carola Zañartu and the texts by Andrea Jösch and Rodrigo Opazo.
