I discovered Jaral de Berrio while on a tour of haciendas in 2013. The first time that I was in the hacienda I felt a presence and knew that ours would be a long, involved relationship. The opulence of the past, the ambience and decay, collapsing walls, ceilings, and floor would draw me back to Jaral at least once a month over the next seven years.
The hacienda was only open to the public during those first two years, but, because the owner appreciated my work there, I was able to explore the hacienda for the following five years, until 2020 with Covid. It helped that I soon developed a real relationship with the people who cared for the hacienda, sharing my images with them.
