Madrid, Spain (2017). From the series "Colors of Little China".
This picture is part of a project called "Colors of Little China". This project was made in the purest street photography tradition. For more than a year I traveled the streets of one of the most picturesque neighborhoods of Madrid: Usera, also known as the Little China of Madrid. Many of its inhabitants have been in the neighborhood for more than twenty years and step by step they have created their own microcosm. The norms and customs seem to be uncommon, turning the visitor into a kind of tourist who travels the streets of a foreign city. I have been that tourist during the time that I have spent completing this project.
