Sucre has a modest population of only 225,000 people. Almost 15 per cent of them – more than 30,000 – take courses at its San Francisco Xavier University. Founded here in 1624, the university has campuses all over Sucre, virtually creating a city within a city. In this photograph, a student is engaged in a dialogue with a teacher just outside one of its walled campuses. The teacher listens as the student uses an emphatic hand gesture to drive home his point. I anchor the scene by filling my foreground with the woman wearing a red vest. It identifies her as a Sucre city employee. She seems to be thinking about joining the discussion across the street, yet her hand gesture indicates hesitance. This image interprets an aspect of education as viewed in a somewhat incongruous context. I make use of my vantage point behind the city employee to thrust my viewers into the mix, encouraging us to join the conversation as well.
