Jóvenes Creadores, 2023–24 cohort National Creators Forum Some photographs of the project Peripheral Chronicles, exhibited at Centro Cultural Los Pinos from December 2024 to February 2025.

Walking an 84 km urban vein divided into twelve seven-kilometre segments, using the tools of an architect: notebook, pencil, and camera, as instruments for a drawn, photographed, and documented expedition. Each seven-kilometre fragment concludes in a synthetic cartography/drawing that gathers what was found along the route, always seeking to ask: How can we rethink the use of the motorway in Mexico City? What does “periphery” mean in a city with no end? What can we learn from the immediate edges of this vast urban vein?

Project developed with the support of Sistema Creación (SACPC), a grant from the Mexican Ministry of Culture
