ZAICKZ STUDIO, Zaickz Moz (Francisco Mosqueda), State of Mexico (2020) - The Periferia project is focused on highlighting the importance of the locations located on the limits of Mexico City, for its full understanding. The complex and inevitable relationship between these locations and the Metropolis is normally assumed from a distance, ignorance or plain assumption: Ecatepec is dangerous and violent. It is home to femicides, aspiring poets, artists, and thieves, all together, becoming a simplistic reduction of everything that cannot exist in Mexico City. Fortunately, an image is worth a thousand words, and they also have good photographers: wandering, staying and observing in the same place, allows us to look beyond the letters and numbers in the headings to begin to distinguish the faces, the family ties and the conformation of a very particular urban environment, where communities are formed from differences, and are maintained through the distance and continuous movement of their migrants, who come and go every day to verify that Ecatepec, is still there for them.
