Megaptera Novangliae 2 - Alonso I. Rodríguez OW.jpg

"I started this project with the hope of doing my part for the seas of Mexico. I deeply believe that every little effort counts and that, together, we can achieve extraordinary things. I have dedicated my life to photographing and documenting our oceans, which has allowed me to witness both their beauty and the challenges they face. I am convinced that you don't need to be a great scientist or a great artist to create meaningful change. It is ordinary people who must raise their voices, demand a better world, and lead by example. This space is designed for the community, and I wholeheartedly invite you to be a part of it. Every day I strive to grow and improve as a human being, although I also have my flaws. I am passionate about sharing my art, my experiences, and giving talks and lectures where we can inspire one another. I invite you to meet my team, as well as the great allies and collaborators who accompany me on this journey. Without them, none of this would be possible."
