This project captures a flash – of beloved, community-led celebrations from inside Oaxaca’s communities of Santo Tomás Jalieza, San Martín Tilcajete, Zaachila, San Juan Chilateca, Teotitlán del Valle and Santa Catarina Minas. This unique time of each year illuminates the buoyant fellowship and revere of impassioned faith – mostly missing, has been lost, or never existed north of México's border. From sunrise to sunset, the most unique, color-filled acts of devotion, and/or rebellion blissfully overtakes each of these communities.
