An image I captured in Mexico City's Historic Center in 2013. It was the first time I had seen a major Christian Evangelical exhibit representing the Evangelical movement in Mexico and in great numbers. The Catholic religion is the primary faith in Mexico yet it appears that in recent decades there has been a surge in the number of people flocking to other faiths the Vatican depicts as sects and false religions.
Born and raised in New York State. Luis Arcadio De Jesus has been residing in Mexico City as of the year 2000. His interest in photography began at an early age, but did not begin to take root until his teens. In 2006 Luis began to take his photography more seriously. His work has been utilized in a variety of media by the likes of Discovery, Random House, Oxford University Press, The New Yorker Magazine, The University of Indiana, to name a few. Most of his work is focused on his experiences in Mexico and his travels back to his native home of the United States.
