On Photography and its Afeptive Capacity

Main Article Content

Núria Calafell Sala
This paper reflects about the links between concept (understood as an idea), percept and ideology, and affects or sensations in some artistic representations. To do so, it examines some photographs published on Facebook illustrating respectful and humanized childbirth and tries to understand, via Manuel Asensi’s theory of world models, why some of these photographs were anonymously reported and eventually censured.
