Somos el sueño de alguien que estuvo antes de nosotros 39

Since 2013 I been exploring the tangible and spiritual impact of violence on families in Mexico, including my own. My work focuses on communities fractured by the state and organized crime, in a physical and psychological sense. I am trying to create a testimony through which I can discuss all these layers of reality that shape my country. These photographs weave together a complex tapestry of family, religion, ritual, poverty, longing, loss, love, dreams, and what it means to live in this context.
