My homage to Tuxtla. Changes, noises, and smoke. The dialectical traffic of its roads and cars, with pedestrians eating, walking, talking, and wandering in its markets, shops, and pavements. Streets where small, untimely events always occur. Henri Lefebvre defined streets as spaces of interaction, in-between, unexpected, and threatening.
