INSTANT VACATION


2008
Foro Sol, Mexico City (rock concert)
Four 6mx6m scenographic views
Costume and mask collection
Photos: 60 x 40cm




Four street photographers, who typically photograph tourists in Chapultepec Park in Mexico City, were hired to take photos of people posing in front of a landscape wearing costumes of their choice. Their images were screened on the main concert venues as part of the show, and people could download their photographs for free.

The archive of this project contains around 750 photographs of spontaneous models dealing in a playful way with profound environmental, geographic, political, social, and gender themes.
