Pasaco, 1996 is an investigative photography project by Luis Corzo, who wanted closure to the traumatic events he lived though as a child. The project contains archival media, as well as new documentation of locations, people, and objects that took part in the act. The book initiates conversations surrounding the story; those of violence, corruption, capital punishment, and criminal rehabilitation.
