EFE24

Two images of the El Alto series are being part of the last issue of EFE24 magazine entirely dedicated this time to portraiture. 

Untill 2006 ID cards and birth certificates in Bolivia were a rare commodity that only privileged individuals living close to an issuing facility could afford to have. When I was granted permission to access the ID facility in this police archive in El Alto I was very interested in showing how women, men and children were able to control their own representation in front of the police officer in charge of taking these pictures.
