Gagá & Vudú, República Dominicana, 1990-1993

These images are part of an anthropological research illustrating the book Gagá & Vudú en la República Dominicana by José Francisco Alegría-Pons. Gagá is the name given to the voodoo sect of Rará in the Dominican Republic. Gagás are organized in a hierarchical order and constitute a social—religious society in the sugar cane plantations.
