In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a Mexican woman is seen sitting on a wooden bench, surrounded by an array of intricately folded paper tissue flowers. Dressed in a simple white blouse and a long, flowing white skirt, she exudes an air of tranquility and creativity. Two long, black plaits cascade down her back, adding to her traditional yet timeless appearance. The scene unfolds in the vibrant and bustling city of Tijuana, Mexico, during the 1980s. The background of the image reveals a lively marketplace, with people and colorful stalls filling the frame. But the woman's peaceful demeanor and the delicate beauty of her paper flower arrangements draw the viewer's focus.
