Photographs currently on display in Santa Fe
If you are in Santa Fe, New Mexico you can view a selection of my photos in person at Living Threads Studio or the Drury Plaza Hotel. The photos were selected from over 200 portraits taken during a 2-year period in Oaxaca, Mexico, that became the award-winning book, Oaxaca Stories in Cloth.
The images celebrate cultural diversity by focusing on indigenous community fashion and the people who continue to dress in the way of their cultural heritage on a daily basis.
The photos are all taken with a digital camera and lit with off-camera flash.
The printing process is called Silver Halide or Chromogenic, an elegant and supremely high quality archival printing method. These are photographic prints on photographic paper (as opposed to inkjet prints, which is how most printing is done currently). They are covered with a UV protective, scratch resistant laminate that serves the same function as glass. They are backed with aluminum and, in most cases, framed in Walnut.
10% of all sales goes to indigenous resilience in Latin America.
The printing and framing is done by local Santa Fe craftspeople at Visions Photo Lab and Gavin Collier Framing
