"María Elvia de Hank" is a collection of works by Mexican photographer Ivonne Venegas (1970-). She has captured the unique tensions and illusions surrounding the upper classes and those in power with a gaze that alternates between intimacy and distance, and is known for her meticulous observation of moments where social roles and the true nature of the individual intersect. This work closely captures the private life of Maria Elvia, who married into Mexico's prestigious Hank family. While avoiding direct discussion of the political background or the lives of the wealthy, it quietly reveals the anxieties and staged aspects that lurk beneath the surface. The occasional moments of fatigue and silence mixed in with the lavish spaces and scenes of events suggest her complex position, and the book invites us to consider the nature of representations of "family" and "wife."
