BLACK AND WHITE CARNIVAL

Series of photographs about the Black and White Carnival in Pasto, Colombia. The carnival was recently declared  Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.The photographs were taken in January of 2009 and 2010 and show the artist and artisans' works, the colours and the game that is typical in the region yet little known in the rest of the country. They portray the anonymous people that participate in the Carnival behind a black, white or coloured mask; as actors and audience in this event that celebrates racial equality.
