Walking down the streets of Oaxaca, one finds the colorful, textured walls that are covered with murals and shadows becoming graphic abstractions. The Oaxacan people are colorful too sometimes creating coincidental similarities to their surroundings such as the woman tending to the vases of flowers at a church or the couple selling their vegetables at the market underneath a mural depicting a couple selling vegetables.

Sally Harris and her late husband Mike shared a passion for photography and each other. For the past 15 years they traveled the world capturing everyday life in different cultures, with Oaxaca being a favorite destination due to its vibrant colors and rich traditions. Recently Sally returned to Oaxaca with a group of photographers. to create more memories and to honor Mike, who passed away in June 2024.

An active member of The Ground Glass, an association of fine art photographers in Rye, NY, and Stamford Photography Club, Sally hasexhibited in numerous juried shows around Fairfield County.
