Mexico

Mexico is an enigmatic land of great beauty and stark contrasts. Its geographic and economic extremes have produced a richly disparate mosaic of physical and cultural realities.

Mesoamerica’s millennia of pre-Columbian history is alive and well just below a thin layer of Western civilization.

Mexico is a land of flesh and blood and ghosts and spirits, where life and death are not mutually exclusive. A magical realism pervades the cyclical nature of existence. A mysteriously liberating fatalism allows life to be lived for the moment.

Over the years my travels in Mexico have provided me with fresh visions of unfamiliar juxtapositions, complex textures, and deep shadows in brilliant light.
