My ongoing project aims to offer a documentation about the social distancing, the use of masks and the diffidence of the other due to the Covid 19 pandemic, through a street photography approach. I am working in Mexico City downtown.
I consider that today street photography is the current photojournalism because unlike the latter it is still free from impositions that allow only the mainstream media to tell the world, censoring any critical thinking. Using the keys of irony and sarcasm, of a lateral vision that Street Photography brings with it, we have the opportunity to be the real witnesses of the social situation we are all experiencing.
I want that anyone looking at my pictures make your own opinion. I don’t want to suggest anything and I leave everything away from my personal judgment. Reality as it is already absurd enough.
From a technical point of view I am working as I am used to do: using zone focusing technique and currently I use a manual lens, the 7Artisans 25mm f1.8 mounted on my XPro2. Sometimes I use the Fujifilm XF 18mm f2.
