Documenting a full-scale hazmat training in Pharr, these photographs sit at the intersection of performance and preparedness. Inside their suits, the responders move slowly, deliberately, like astronauts learning the terrain of a new world. Everything is controlled — the drills, the timing, the choreography — yet there’s an undercurrent of tension, the kind that comes from rehearsing scenarios you hope never happen. In a landscape known more for heat and flat roads than disaster response, this training becomes its own kind of local theater.
