For Mexico City Art Week 2026, I'll be showcasing a curated selection of my Vochos Unidos photos at Feria Material from Feb 5th - Feb 8th presented by KDR.


 After a long caravan throughout the city, a massive  grouping of Vochos overtakes this parking lot in Mexico City.

Katia Rosenthal is a critically acclaimed art gallerist focusing on contemporary works with up-and-cominng artists throughout the US. She's taken a leap of faith to be the first to show a small curated selection of the work to the art world, and for that, I'm forever grateful.


Vochos Unidos is an art/street/documentary photography project that takes a deep look into Mexican culture by using the classic VW Bug as the guiding object. The work was created during my 5 years in Mexico, as I explored my personal struggles and family history. Inspired by the unknown chaos of Mexico's daily life, through daily street photography explorations, the Vocho became the key for me to rediscover my passion for photography and country. As the Vocho fades into a relic after a long life of moving the entire population, this project hopes to create a unifying space for everyone to understand their neighbors through shared personal experiences.


Stay tuned for the Vochos Unidos book release in April 2026!
