ESTOY DE NOCHE EDITORIAL
This is the name of the collection and arises from the exploration of the corridos tumbados culture, along with the aesthetic fascination for this phenomenon and the dark context that accompanies it. While researching the state of criminality in Mexico, we came across the testimony of “Tacita,” a reformed child hitman with a terrible life story. Estoy de noche or I feel lost in the night refers to the emotional state of sadness and pain that Tacita experiences as a consequence of his time in crime. Amid the death and extreme violence that thousands of children in Mexico face, there remains the possibility of reentry.
This name commemorates all those who currently endure such conditions, as well as the general afflictive sentiment of the country. On a personal level, María hails from a family in a small village in western Mexico, where this culture has permeated her background: buchonas, corridos, ranchos and rural life. In her practice, themes such as family, matriarchy, power, and materialism are recurring concepts explored through her clothing and accessories.
