Abstract

In order to deepen semiotic studies, based on Peirce's concepts of firstness, secondness and thirdness, we seek in this article to elucidate such theories, as well as to present the main trichotomic divisions that are part of this universe, which relate to the sign itself, its relationship with the object and also with the interpretant. Then, we propose to think about photography and, more specifically, artistic everyday life photography in the light of these ideas. In addition to working with the principles of Peirce himself, we bring the insights of Santaella, Machado and Ibri, scholars of this semiotic line, as a way to enrich the proposed discussions. Photography is discussed here in order to express how these concepts help us to escape from shallow and immediate perceptions, contributing to the apprehension of how this sign is shown in a unique way in the field of art.
