Ricas y Famosas

Programs: Indesign: Photoshop
Format: Book; Hand Bound; Personally Printed
Genre: Book, Mulilingual project
Date:2024

This multilingual book combines Daniela Rossell's photography series Ricas y Famosas with Ramón Eduardo Ruiz's essay The Shifty Peso. By pairing these images and text, the book critiques the economic disparity in Mexico. A gradient shift runs throughout the book, organizing the images by their content, while spreads in the middle serve as an inventory of the visuals. The short sheets allow readers to follow the text in their preferred language until both converge on the final page.
