Description
Throughout his life, Francisco Coto photographed his family, making scenes of everyday life an intimate and recurring part of his work. During a vacation in Puntarenas, he photographed his daughter surrounded by hanging laundry and everyday objects. Color, form, and the image’s overlapping planes transform a family moment into a carefully constructed composition.
