Conceptualización de una intervención urbana con base en la imagen negativa del consumidor de cannabis en México

Abstract

Reflecting that the Mexican studies associated with the particular history of drugs and their relationship with social, political and economic processes over time are still few, with this text to it is intended to contribute to said speech in a visual way. We use the image and photography to analyze certain characters. We observe their clothing and customs to identify them within cultural and social contexts. We identify visual indices within the images that present these characters. It is a work which is conceptualized as an urban intervention. The artistic tools used are photography and the reappropriation of public space where we use the ephemeral as a support within an almost performative discourse using the torn image to address the collective memory and social imaginaries around the cannabis consumer in Mexico.
