“Tales of the Asphalt Flower” is a fashion photography series captured across various locations in Mexico, telling the story of the everyday urban landscape. Through this collection, sustainable fashion becomes a language of identity and resistance. Fashion and space do not remain silent; they observe one another, brush against each other, and enter into dialogue, reminding us that fashion belongs to all of humanity. The series stems from collaborations with Mexican creators of diverse styles, from artisanal garments crafted with techniques from the Oaxacan coast, to the work of designers and stylists who embody the city and challenge the prevalent conservative values of the region.
These imagen are a response to years of misrepresentation by Western media, which has often portrayed Mexican urban spaces as exotic or dangerous. Without idealizing, the aim is to depict our contradictory homes through our own eyes.
