A Guide to Infrastructure & Corruption

A Guide to Infrastructure and Corruption is a long-term project that I started in 2009 when the opportunity to become a conscious citizen arose. A new overpass was to be built a block away from my house in Monterrey, Mexico, changing the transit and flow for everyone who lived in the the immediate area. Having lived downtown since 2007, I suddenly felt that we were being affected by these new infrastructure complexes so that they could supply a quick way for people to get out of the city and into the newly built suburbs that I was photographing at the time.  — Alejandro Cartagena Limited Edition: 500; Format: Hardcover, Tape-Bound; Dimensions: 192 pages, 140 × 210 mm
