Capturing the unique culture, grit, joy, and humanity of the towns of Mexico and the Texas border, this stunning book of photographs by Laura Wilson opens our eyes to a rarely seen part of the world. Intimate portrayals of village life, popular festivals, quinceañeras, cowboys, firebreathers, and captivating portraits illuminate a vibrant yet tenuous existence.
An accessible text includes a conversation with the photographer that reveals her personal insights and experiences in the region. Featuring work drawn from thirty years of exploration in the area by the accomplished photographer including new and unpublished images, this fascinating volume is a valuable contribution to our understanding and awareness of an underappreciated way of life.
Published to accompany a major exhibition at the Meadows Museum in Dallas, Texas (September 14, 2025-January 11, 2026).
