Yajaira & El Ñato.

Document-size photos of Yajaira, the heiress to the sport fishing business, navigates the sea as a homenaje of his lated father, El Ñato. Later, the portraits were installed as if they were a ship in ruins on the beach before the tide rose and covered them.

The illegal production and trade of drugs increase the deaths of people. It also increases the cost of the product. At the moment when the consumption and distribution of drugs are legalized, as has happened with cannabis in Uruguay, for example, prices in the market will automatically decrease. Drug traffickers and corrupt officials will no longer have a monopoly on the business. Here, fishermen will no longer have to face the risks associated with trafficking because it will not be as profitable compared to their ancestral fishing and diving activities.

President Petro, recently in his address at the United Nations podium, stated: “I demand from here, from my wounded Latin America, to end the irrational war on drugs.
