There were times when it seemed there was no affection to be found. The dark times when things got really bad. When they took an unexpected turn for the worse. When the sadness seemed unbearable. When they felt forgotten. Or neglected. Or unwanted. When they were miserable and distraught. When the whole world seemed against them. When all they needed was a helping hand. Someone to lift them up and empower them. Or even just acknowledge them. They kept holding on to hope for acceptance. They found the courage buried inside of them and searched for the tiniest sliver of optimism. For the love that they knew endured somewhere out there in the world. Even if it seemed silly. If it seemed unimportant to everyone else. They searched for something to believe in. And for someone to believe in them.

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.
