Abstract
Since the second half of the 20th century, modernization projects in western Mexico intensified the modification of the landscape with infrastructure for the reproduction of species. In this photo-essay I pursue the mobility of one of them, the fish. Specifically, I explore the figure of the blind fish as a narrative of modernity that provides an image of darkness. If modernity is a situated project that provides lights, I suggest the penumbra of the fish as an intermediate zone of light and darkness to think about the moments of inconsistency in the inhabiting of Mexican progress.
