In this photographic ethnographic album we can appreciate the popular festival, in its maximum splendor as part of the identity of the town of Jima, a parish belonging to the province of Azuay. The importance of this photographic record lies in how reciprocity networks are activated among the people who experience these festivities, as is the case of the Carnival Festival. Like, for example: from attending mass, dressing for the celebration, carnival gastronomy and dances with local music, which will make young and old move their feet. In this sense, it is important to approach this context through the visual record, since through these images a whole range of symbolisms that revolve around this festivity can be appreciated. knowledge. The research tries to shed light on the reasons that drive them to mistrust hegemonic discourses and promote theirs of an alternate nature where mythical imaginaries are the basis that sustains their discourse.
