Beautiful Photography project, from a symbol of discrimination to a skate culture statement, by theses indigenous women in Bolivia. 🇧🇴🛹 The collective ImillaSkate rides through the streets of Cochabamba wearing polleras, the traditional pleated skirts historically worn by Indigenous Aymara and Quechua women. Once used as a symbol of discrimination has become a statement of resilience, and visibility. For decades, Indigenous Bolivian women known as “Cholitas” faced exclusion from public spaces, and discrimination. Today, a new generation is reclaiming the identity with skateboarding, a sport historically dominated by men. This series by the photographer Celia D. Luna documented the movement as part of her “Cholitas Bravas” series celiadluna 🤍 Choose your Favorite Photography ? (1-9) #art #skate #photo #bolívia
