Displaced Salvadoran Family Cooking Together, 2020
Delmira de Jesús Cortez Barrera (left) and her sister (center) make pupusas, traditional Salvadoran food, with their family. They moved to El Salvador’s capital city of San Salvador after their agriculture work was no longer able to support them. This cluttered image is a reflection of the broader state of affairs in El Salvador. With climate change making agriculture more difficult, may traditional farming families are forced to move into crowded cities to find food and work. Housing is very expensive or unavailable for many citizens, meaning multiple generations of families often live in the same household. Label by Lucas Theobald
