Chilangos
Chilangos is a project that I have been pursuing for more than three years. The series was born from the necessity to capture those looks that I distinguished in the human chaos of the crowded Mexican capital. The historic center, the place where I live, is lively and noisy, here are the streets where young people are free to show their styles, fears and sexual orientations. There are still doubts about the origins of the word chilango, but it express an idea of inclusion because it means “belonging to Mexico City, interacting with It”, being borned there or came there from another place. I decide to use this idea of inclusion for all those guys I met, who chose the street like the place of self definition creating my own vision of a chilango.
