From 1996 to 1998 in different cities in the world, Cao Guimarães asked some people to kidnap him. Blindfold and without any information about the places they would take him, he registered his sensorial impressions through “blind photographs”. The photographs, together with written narratives of each kidnapping, resulted in a book and in a video installation.
