The Daily Grind

Pablo Diego is a photographer working in Mexico city.

The daily life in Mexico City is filled with rituals and ancient customs reinterpreted for the present.
Living a modern city built over pyramids, the constantly changing shape of symbols evoking historic sentiments is a guide for our people to hold identity while trying to evolve.

"The Daily Grind" is an exploration on traditions and the underlying systems which hold them together and enable their repetition through time.

To find this story I portrayed the unaware Organ Grinders in their former stand, with a theatrical stage as if they were the only providers of heavenly musical sound, remarking the code of colors which highlights the resemblance with their surroundings appearing as ghost like musicians switching in and out of the shadows of the past.
