In my mind there is never silence by Diego Moreno. Published by Inframundo.
After his magnificent first book, Huesped, Diego Moreno came to this year's Arles photo festival with this new, astonishing, and limited photobook, which confirms the talent and depth of this Mexican photographer.
As it's often the case with Inframundo's publications here again particular care has been taken in the originality of the production of this hand-bound book. Also, besides this intriguing and beautiful photo series about “Los Panzudos Mercedarios” (the stout guardians of the neighborhood of La Merced in San Cristóbal de las Casas in Chiapas, México), Diego Moreno's text brings us directly into his thoughts about both his dearest beings in precarious situation and, further, his life as a gay boy in Mexico. Deep and meaningful.
