During his over 40 years of photography career, the expression form of Pedro Meyer’s works covers a wide range from social documentary photography to digital image. With Jewish blood, Pedro Meyer was born in Spain and then immigrated to Mexico. He completed his university education before returning to Mexico. Collision and integration among Indian culture, European culture and colonial culture gives birth to Mexican cultural aroma -, which also supports Pedro Meyer to build his own photographic style.
