A woman in a dust storm, a walking tree, Village of San Augustin de Oapan, State of Guerrero, Mexico, 4 May 1985
This text is taken from Return to Mexico, Journeys Beyond the Mask: ‘The village is mad with heat. Men, beasts, trees, shacks, cacti – they’re all motionless, suspended in a diaphanous haze. Everything seems to be floating, hallucinated. The dry season is ending, and every afternoon, we are engulfed in a dust storm. I’ll never be as hot as this tenth return … I know that this is the last time.’ Buy this print
