Overview
If you’ve ever been to Spain or Mexico no doubt you’ve mumbled the words yo no hablo español, for better or for worse. But even if you’ve spent your whole life in Sydney you’ll realise that you do know a bunch of Spanish words like hola, taco, bueno, tequila, amigo and mariachi. These few words are sure to get you off to a good start!
In 2011 photographer Christopher Morris took this attitude and his medium format camera to Central North Mexico and captured everyday images in parts of the country rarely seen. His spectacular photographs of Mexico are rugged, epic and deserted, and attest strength of character to the people who live amongst the mountainous caverns, deserted, dusty streets and cactus-punctured streets.
Christopher Morris is the first artist taking the walls at Gallery 2010, a new contemporary curator-run art space in Surry Hills. At the launch event on Thursday night a limited edition 50 page book of the photographs published by Izrock will also be available. Vamos amigos!
