They sought answers to everything. There was no amount of knowledge that would satisfy their hunger. It was never enough. Something compelled them to question everything. Even the ideas they could never understand the wanted resolution. As much as they tried it wasn’t even possible. It was beyond the scope of humanity. Their bodies couldn’t physically contain it. To comprehend its will. The all-powerful. The higher plane. The all-knowing. The know nothing. Whether it was God or the wind. Why were they here? What was their purpose in this place? To find happiness? But the idea is so vague. If they were happy, could others be happy too? One’s joy was another’s hate. They were opposing forces. Yin and yang. Fire and water. Without one there was not the other. Without darkness there was not light. Was it not enough just to exist?

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.
