And he saw his father. He was much younger than he was. His hair was slicked back, his face cleanly shaven and he was tastefully dressed in a suit and tie. This was well before he was born. Before he met his mother. He always wondered what he was like at this age. On first impression, there wasn’t much difference as when he was 40. He always had an air of confidence around him. He had so few doubts about anything. But when he looked into his eyes in the photo, going down deep, into the soul of the man that raised him, that taught him everything and was his best friend and confidant, seeing everything that came before and everything after, he could see fear. Just a hint of it. Flawed. Vulnerable. He saw him as human and it was comforting.
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.
