“It's a funny thing that happens when you finally stop thinking. You're just there in the present. The constant background noise fades out and you're left with something bare. With time I gave myself a chance to learn from the masters of street photography that eliminating what's not important helps you focus on what is. It's a philosophy that applies to most aspects of life, but translated to photography it means we're better able to focus on the people and life around us.

Reynaldo Rivera was born in Mexico but spent his childhood traveling across the border and within the United States—mostly between San Diego de la Unión, Mexico; Los Angeles; and Stockton, California—before settling as a young adult in East L.A. Rivera’s large (and largely unseen) body of photographic work captures the city’s queer clubs and house party scene in the 1980s and 1990s.
