About this listen

 Photographer and visual storyteller Ilan Sánchez captures more than moments — he captures meaning. Through analog film photography, street portraits, and honest connection, his work explores how slowing down helps us truly see people, not just pass by them. From Mexico City to Oaxaca, Ilan builds community through art that gives back instead of taking, documenting culture, identity, and everyday life with intention. Born and raised in Oaxaca, he offers a rare local perspective on how the city’s sudden global spotlight — from mezcal to design and tourism — is reshaping its creative and cultural landscape. This conversation dives deep into street photography, creative process, authenticity, and the future of art in a world that moves too fast.
