Most of the resorts in Santa María tried to maintain a family friendly atmosphere. They offered adjoining rooms with space for caretakers, so parents could have their privacy. They could set up birthday parties with towering cakes, clowns and balloons, and childcare specialists to play games, helping release the excess energy of excited kids. There were beach cabanas filled with toys and bracelets, plus huts with monkeys and parrots to take photos with. There were theaters with puppet shows and parks with games and water slides. Butterfly houses, museums and zoos were opened up around town, while roving vendors could be found selling sugary sweets like churros and chocolate candies almost anywhere one went.

Santa Maria de las Rocas collection image

A novella by Nicholas Gill and Alejandro Cartagena.

A collection of 151 “expired photographs” that were thrown out, collected from a tianguis outside of Mexico City by photographer and archivist Alejandro Cartagena and then pieced together and reimagined by writer Nicholas Gill. The 151-page novella tells the tale of the fictional town of Santa María de las Rocas, located in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas.

The story traces this coastal community from its humble origins at the turn of the century to the 1980s, as it corresponds to real events in the history of this corner of Mexico. As years pass, the landscape changes and the community grows and develops. There’s corruption and violence, magic and hope. Characters fall in love and fall apart. Their voices are heard. Their songs are sung.

The existence of this project is designed to question the very nature of storytelling and its possibilities in the digital age. As such, it’s done as a CO0, for free public use.
