Davinnos Dulces Anahuac (Tijuana, Mexico - July 2001)
All of the candy "cigarettes" from Dulces Anahuac are actually crammed with
mediocre-tasting gumballs. Perhaps children pretend they are brightly-colored
tobacco clumps.
Davinnos reminds me of the shadowy figure from the "Neighborhood Watch"
signs.
I traced this image off an actual Neighborhood Watch sign -- a ridiculously
huge one tucked in the hills of some well-off suburb. A gated community,
protecting the rest of us from the depradations and machinations of rich
boring people. An elderly lady was walking her bicycle by and asked if I
was checking the sign to replace it. "Yes, exactly." Gotta get on that
someday.
