Del insomnio zamorano. Lo que no se platica, pero que la noche permite mostrar.

This photo essay features moments captured during late-night walks in Zamora, Michoacán, between 2020 and 2023, the years in which the city had among the highest murder and disappearance rates in the world. It explores the use of home altars and cenotaphs in the face of the silence surrounding these crimes in public expressions. Following the lead of Zamorano (2022), Reyero (2007), and others, the images were handed out at random, generating an opportunity for people to discuss violence, mourning, fear, and the stigma that hangs over families who have lost relatives. The most moving part of the text—responses sent in anonymously by people who had seen these photographs—is shared in the captions.
