Stefan Ruiz's images of Sammy & Michel, shot in Monterrey, Mx. were featured Aperture’s fall issue 256.
Deana Lawson guest edits this special issue of Aperture magazine, titled “Arrhythmic Mythic Ra” which refracts themes of family, social history, and the astrophysical through a selection of surprising and illuminating images by photographers from the past and present.
“Photography, the outlier, is most adept at reminding us of instability and fallibilities. I believe we all need to observe things we don’t understand. And as someone who makes pictures, l’m reminded that a photograph, by its nature, can deliver more about the subject than even the photographer or the subject intend.” writes Lawson. “With this in mind, I have arranged a constellation of images that operate like texts and texts that operate like pictures-fragmented, arrhythmic, mythic.”
