The Dark Book

Resumen del Libro

Small format book containing 28 black-and-white gloomy photographs taken through a hidden camera that Omar Gámez carries in a waist pack, and that allows him to randomly shoot long exposures of the casual encounters between gay men in Mexico City. Luis Felipe Ortega describes Gámez work as images shot In a place where the rituals force you to lose all modesty, where the sense of body is enhanced in the search of the dominant male, where some are subdued to the power of others, where the intensity of light is dimmed to raise the potential of anonymity.
