Every night temo ser la dinner

Every night temo ser la dinner is a vibrant and rambling narration which revolves around her encounters with eleven men of different races and backgrounds. It is a wild proclamation of love by an author who speaks through the crude vision of children and the insane. Through non-linear micro-narrations, Sofía Ayarzagoitia composes a series of experiences in the shape of a performance which she then captures with her camera. The texts are written in 'pocho', the name given in Mexico to the frontier language that combines Spanish and English. According to the photographer, the title of the book is an ironic metaphor of how I came to feel some of those nights ... In a primarily male universe, I was never sure whether they were going to ask me for a date, or tell me off for wanting to take their picture. Sofía Ayarzagoitia (Monterrey, 1987) has been the 2016 winner of the La Fábrica Contest.
