GLADIATORS OF THE CANVAS
This series just got Exposure One 2026 Photographer of the Year
SIlver Award and People’s Vote Award.
This series strips away the theatrical pageantry of Lucha Libre to lay bare its raw human core. Beyond the vibrant masks and staged bravado lies a physical reality—part strain and part tragicomedy. I have tried to capture the arc of the arena experience: inside the ropes, the fleeting moments outside the ring, and the contrast between an energetic audience and a battered performer.
