Alicia Vera is a Mexico City based photographer.. Alicia has been published in Time, The Wall Street Journal, The Intercept, The Guardian, NPR, The New York Times, Bloomberg, Condé Nast Traveler, Vice, Dwell and many others. Alicia’s interest seems to be in communities underreported in mainstream media. Alicia’s projects include El Salvadorian gang members seeking asylum in the Evangelical church, sex work in the United States, and women's boxing rings in Mexico City. Alicia tells me about the art of photographing tender moments- including documenting sex work. We talk about the relationship between memory and identity and the tenderness of family as it changes with each generation.
