Abstract
Our purpose is to find out how the photographic images of the saltpetre mines, the men who inhabited them, the industry that was developed from them, and the desert landscapes on which towns were built, have fed, reaffirmed and ordered a social and collective memory, subjective and personal, and also have imprinted in the "object photo" a double aesthetic and symbolic connotation. The study of memory -individual and/or collective- and the way in which it is ordered and expressed, constitutes a central element to understand how the life experiences are omitted, exalted and remembered; and also how what has not yet been lived is revived.
