Copala, Guerrero, Mexico | Ruben Salgado Escudero

Cristóbal Céspedes Lorenzo sits on his raft while carrying coconuts across the river to his home in Copala, a mainly Afro-Mexican community in Guerrero.

Cristóbal and Francisco Manzanares Cagua both work picking coconuts which they then sell to a local company which makes coconut butter and oil.

This image comes from the “Solar Portraits” project which addresses the important issue of lack of electricity around the world. It is a series of portraits depicting the lives of inhabitants of remote areas worldwide who, for the first time, have access to electricity through the power of solar energy.
