Parr’s take on a day at the beach, shot at various beach locations around Latin America. An original, addictive look at images that are packed full of details, with all aspects of humanity exposed bare. There are dogs, debris, smog, crowds of people of all shapes and sizes. The very first image shows a train of beachgoers laden down with deckchairs and behind them a sea of bodies among the umbrellas and city smog. The beach is a place where public and private worlds intersect, a curious mix of defence and intimacy. People let down their guard, revealing the secrets of their bodies, habits, and relationships to anyone who cares or dares to look, as they dream and snooze on the sand.
