The images of Maria Luz Bravo invite a sense of inquiry as to why there is no one to be seen in any of the photographs. The images show streets, parks and buildings all without a single human in sight.
What really piqued my interest about Maria Luz Bravo's pictures is that they could very easily be a set for a zombie or post-apocalyptic flick. From looking at the images, my mind began creating a story explaining why this town was empty. If I stumbled across a deserted scene like these, my first instinct would be to keep driving before I find myself reliving the movie The Hills Have Eyes.
