“Behind the mask, there is a story about to fight.”
“Detrás de la máscara, hay una historia a punto de pelear.”

English

Hello friends of the Black and White community, here I am one more day showing you the material I have on the customs of Peru, specifically from Chumbivilcas, Cusco. I love the way clothing is perceived in Takanakuy; everything is a personal project, from the taxidermy and the pants to the alias and the mask itself.

I hadn't noticed it before, but analyzing the moments before the fights, many gather in groups, all wearing their masks and taxidermy. You never truly know who you are dealing with, or if the person fighting has been photographed before. It is two days of pure adrenaline, celebration, and alcohol. I began to notice the intricate details of the clothes and have started distinguishing each fighter one by one during the bouts.

Composition during the fights has been complicated for me due to the chaos, but applying a crop helps a lot to clean the frame. I chose this series of 8 photos; I hope you like it. Good vibes and positive energy to everyone!
