Oscar Fernando Gomez Rodriguez (b.1970) is an artist who lives and works in Mexico. He began as a wedding photographer, but supplemented his income by driving a taxi.

Clare Kenny

“I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else’s house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it’s imagining how people would feel and look like if they were to reenact them today… A few months ago, I decided to actually do this. So, with my camera, I started inviting people to go back to their future.” read more
