These photos span the past years living in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato. It’s a portrait with interacting and overlapping themes. For example the nopal cactus and its prickly pear fruit below end up in the mercado; a hacienda’s golden walls is adorned with brilliant fuchsia colored bougainvillea and Spanish colonial churches and most strikingly, the town’s pastel pink 17th century landmark: the Parroquia with a “facade” designed by an indigenous stonemason, make for the heart of the Centro Historico. Finally, we have a few images I captured of people as well as festivals such as the Day of the Dead, Easter and the traditional Azteca dances that make for Mexico’s rich and diverse culture.
