WINDOW ON PARADISE

Is composed of a series of images
guided by the eye and lead by the ear.

Looking and listening have been our inspiration.
Traveling the length of Quintana Roo from north to south,
as it was meant to be traveled.

Sea and jungle. Sand and soil. Sky and cenote.
Inhabitants of every specie.
Footprints from the past leading to today's amazing works.
Legends and myths. These have been our protagonists.

Here are images stenciled in light, inviting whoever
strolls through them to enter in and savor paradise.
The words have not been used to decorate the landscape.
The land is there and speaks for itself.

This is a window in a book form. Wherever you look,
time takes its own shape, and entices the reader to linger.

Quintana Roo, this book is born of your essence.

Professional diver, active ecologist, photographer, businessman, pilot, intrepid adventurer and a good friend, Gonzalo Arcila lives in Akumal.
