Abstract

The article offers brief profile of photographer Elle Pérez. It mentions that Pérez's photographs are more empathetic than embattled; photographs of Pérez were from different places such as the Latin club night and a punk show; and photographs created their own imagined community, to use the phrase coined by historian Benedict Anderson, in which people were joined by shared experiences or collective memories rather than by more traditional borders of the nation-state.
