Photoserie ‘So far from God, too close to America’ über den mexikanischen Drogenkrieg von Jérôme Sessini.

The war declared to drug lords by Mexican president Felipe Calderon two years ago, caused an unprecedented outburst of violence in the whole country. Under pressure for their lucrative routes, the traffickers are fighting both among themselves, and against Mexican Federal forces. Nationwide, the number of killings attributed to organized crime doubled in 2008 to more than 6,000, and no city has been harder hit than Ciudad Juarez.

In my dream, I appear, clothed; I come and go along these familiar alleys. I revisit my old school, the dazzle of lights emanating from the cinema, the riverside where I used to swim, the rooftops where I once went to get a breath of fresh air, the winding pathways… all is in darkness, unattended, there are no friends or relatives to be found anywhere. Where do all of these bubbles and floating objects come from? It becomes difficult to breathe, I fail to grasp anything, I scream but no sound can be heard…

Wir alle blicken grade ja nach Südafrika, wo uns diese Wilden durch ihr Vuvuzelageblase daran hindern, dem gewohnten Gröhlen der betrunkenen europäischen Fans zu lauschen.

Es gibt aber natürlich noch viele andere schöne Ecken in Afrika. Zum Beispiel den Congo. Dort wird allerdings mit automatischen Waffen gelärmt und es geht statt um einen Pokal um Leben und Tod.

‘American Able’ intends to, through spoof, reveal the ways in which women with disabilities are invisibilized in advertising and mass media. I chose American Apparel not just for their notable style, but also for their claims that many of their models are just ‘every day’ women who are employees, friends and fans of the company. However, these women fit particular body types. Their campaigns are highly sexualized and feature women who are generally thin, and who appear to be able-bodied. Women with disabilities go unrepresented, not only in American Apparel advertising, but also in most of popular culture. Rarely, if ever, are women with disabilities portrayed in anything other than an asexual manner, for ‘disabled’ bodies are largely perceived as ‘undesirable.’ In a society where sexuality is created and performed over and over within popular culture, the invisibility of women with disabilities in many ways denies them the right to sexuality, particularly within a public context.
