Captured over the past decade, the Spanish photographer’s first monograph represents a love letter to “the country, its people, the traditions, the architecture, the colours, all the nature – the desert, the wildlife, everything”
“Every photo reflects a mood I was in, what something made me feel or what I was experiencing,” says Riverola.
A poetic intermezzo written by her partner John Reagan appears in the middle of the book, giving existential voice to the images. Punctuating the prose with delicate irony, it echoes: “a map of the states drawn in my mind, my path, my friends and strangers made unstrange. Flowers blooming and fading, discovering new paths. New hours of the day. New lights. Old shadows.
In almost every image there is a nod to Mexico’s ecology, particularly its flowers. Cars and cemeteries overflow with flora, a woman kneels in a yellow mess of Mexican marigolds and a sea of carmine petals envelop a group of men in the back of a pick-up truck.
