Trade Review"Daniel Hernandez-Salazar has geared his talents to capturing the links between memory and the dignity of victims and survivors of genocide... As a visual and aesthetic synthesis of [the report] Guatemala: Never Again, Daniel has willed us an angel with wings of bone that is simultaneously four and one, a faithful witness and prophet that soars from the mass graves to tell the world that memory is also a seed of the future." Rigoberta Menchu Tum, Nobel Laureate for Peace "Years pass. They pile up like pages in a book. Everything goes unpunished. I have to scream." Daniel Hernandez-Salazar
