2011 – Lines of Division

Lines of Division. 2011

Installation in the Rubin Center for the Visual Arts, El Paso, USA.

The maps of five conflict-ridden borders on which the United States has an important influence are ‘drawn’ using a chainsaw on plywood boards set up like tables. On each “table” there is a video with images related to the current situation in the referred region. Mapped borders: Mexico-USA; Colombia-Venezuela; North Korea-South Korea; Pakistan-Afghanistan; Gaza Strip-Israel and Egypt.
