Pandemic Times 2021: everyday life in Mexico City at the time of Covid-19

Written By Alex Coghe

At the moment I am collecting moments on the street. Time will tell if I have a real project in my hands. I share something with you.

I know what I want. And I know what I don’t. I want to avoid the theatre of pain and the usual terroristic narrative. I have seen too much spectacle on this subject. Written and photographed. For example, the dramatization in black and white to give a reason to some fairly trivial photos if they weren't so many contrasting ones. Or others with a black soot post production.

I am not interested to do the show.

Already in 2020 I documented what was happened in Mexico City during the pandemic. And you can appreciate the results on Polaris Images website:
