Visual Materials
These 21 photographs are part of a series documenting participants in Day of the Dead/Dia de los Muertos celebrations in Los Angeles. Several photographs were taken at the Los Angeles Photography Center's annual Dia de los Muertos event in 1989. Aguilar constructed a large coffin as a prop for portraits of attendees, many of whom included Chicanx artists. Other photographs include individuals and families in or around their homes in costume or makeup.
