Jérôme Sessini Child with mask. Ciudad Juarez. Colonia Zaragoza. 2009.
“In many ways I have a close connection with Mexico, which has drawn me there recurrently over the past ten years.
As I wrote in my book,
(...) The Wrong Side: Living on the Mexican Border (Contrasto, 2012), in which this image was included: ‘Disturbing landscape, grey world of the workers in the maquilas. Concrete blocks. Seaside without the sea...Silent children, strangled by the hoods of their anoraks, heads down. They drag themselves like old men along the path home.’”
