CUATRO LETRAS
THE FIRST EVER PHOTO BOOK ON THE CJNG.Ā
Cuatro Letras is a rare look inside the CJNG (CĆ”rtel de Jalisco Nueva GeneraciĆ³n), built from two perspectives that rarely meet. On the ground, Juan JosĆ© Estrada SerafĆn, the only fixer to secure media access to the group, risked his life in a series of attempts, failed handoffs, and tense encounters to bring back images and artifacts from cartel territory. In parallel, Pouria Khojastehpay gathered and organized the cartelās self-produced social media presence, creating a living archive of its visual identity.
Together, their work forms a contemporary narrative of how one of the worldās most powerful cartels performs power through uniforms, symbols, vehicles, and spectacle.
Includes a field story essay by Keegan Hamilton. One of the journalists who received media access through SerafĆn in the past.Ā
