The Granizal district of Medellín, Columbia
A sweeping aerial or ground-level view of Medellín's Granizal district captures the dense, informal urban landscape cascading across the hillsides of Colombia's second-largest city. Norfolk's chromogenic print renders the tightly packed structures in vivid, saturated color, highlighting both the precariousness and resilience of life in one of the city's peripheral comunas. The flush-mounted format gives the image a sleek, immersive quality, inviting close examination of the complex social and architectural textures within this marginalized community.
