Mexican photographer Carlos Alvarez Montero, torn between Mexico City and New York, took twenty portraits of his compatriots with neck or face tattoos as part of his Scars project. All images are symbols of something important in the life of each of the heroes of the project. For one, this is a mother, for another, revenge, and for a third, just women.
