Nuestra: A Collective Portrait of New Mexico
On view: September 5–November 1, 2025
Opening reception: Friday, September 5, 5:00-10:00 pm

The Secret Gallery is proud to present Nuestra: A Collective Portrait of New Mexico, a new group photography exhibition by Gabriela Campos, Nathaniel Tetsuro Paolinelli, and Jessica Roybal.

Translated as “Ours,” Nuestra is both a declaration and an invitation. This exhibition unites three distinct photographic voices in a shared visual story of New Mexico-its people, landscapes, traditions, and everyday moments-told from the inside out.

As close friends and longtime documentarians of New Mexico culture, Campos, Paolinelli, and Roybal often cross paths-at parades and powwows, on dusty backroads, in neighborhood celebrations-but each photographer sees through a unique lens. Together, their work creates a layered and intimate portrait of place and belonging.

This marks the first time the trio has exhibited together. Nuestra is a celebration of community, culture, and the art of paying attention-rooted deeply in the land they call home.
