Overview:
Prizewinning photographer Turok presents a striking visual diary of his experiences in this southern Mexican state, which is in many ways a cultural crossroads for the Americas. While they cannot help but reflect the politics of the region, the photographs transcend mere reportage, echoing the rich history of Chiapas. His portraits of the many different lives and rituals from barroom fiestas to country funerals, and from high society to homelessness, offer a multifaceted view of a complex social environment.
