Tomas Ayuso (b. 1986, Guatemala; lives in the Americas) is a Honduran photojournalist. His work focuses on Latin American conflict as it relates to the drug war, forced displacement, and urban dispossession.
Ayuso seeks to bind the disparate threads of communities into the grand interlinked story of the Americas. In covering the different types of violence facing the region’s people, Ayuso hopes to create a record of both continental struggles and local successes.
Ayuso holds an MA in conflict and development from the New School (2012), and is an International Reporting Project Fellow (2016) and a National Geographic Portfolio Grant recipient (2017).
