My Craft

Jorge, a bricklayer from Guanajuato.
He was picking up bricks from a sidewalk and carrying them up a wooden ladder to a rooftop where he was building this giant brick dome.
I asked for how long he'd been doing this and he said: "...about ten years, my father taught me and my brothers and our grandfather taught him, it's a tradition in my family".
I took his photo through the skylight in the dome three days after he started laying the first line.
