18 NOv 2008Why is it so hard to reach out?
Why is it so hard to reach out? #1 An 8 meter long banner placed on the border between Mexico and USA. United States-Mexico border (better known in Tijuana as El bordo or La linea) is a huge steel barrier designated to prevent illegal immigration into the US and it’s strategically placed along the 3,141 km of border between the two countries.
El nies in spanish is a sexual term for the space in between the genitals and the anus. The expression is also used to describe something that is in between, something not defined, something that is nothing. The banner was hung on the Mexican side of the border just by the highway outside the international airport in Tijuana the 9th of October, 2008.
WALL PAINTINGS
Orderd from a man who normally paint add’s in the streets. Four paintings can be seen around the Centro Historico of the city of Querétaro and one painting will appear in the museum during the exhibition.

These specific traditional textiles are what tourists in Mexico commonly bring back to their countries as souvenirs from their trip and the people selling them are often described as a picturesque-exotic element to view as you stroll around streets and markets.
I was with the visual artists Stina Östberg in the border city of Tijuana producing an art-piece for our upcoming exhibition ” Why is it so hard to reach out?” .For this work, we used the U.S-Mexico border, to produce a public piece that which documentation will be shown at El Museo de la Ciudad de Querétaro this 28th of November 2008.
United States-Mexico border -better known in Tijuana as ” El bordo” or ” La linea”- is a huge steel wall or barrier designated to prevent illegal immigration and drug smuggling into the US. It is strategically placed along the 3,141 km of border between Mexico and the US, and it’s also a characteristic aesthetic of almost all the Mexican border cities with the USA.
If you want to see our piece, don’t miss our exhibition in the City of Quereatro! Meanwhile, take a look to some of the photos we took on our trip, and the links to 6 of our recommendations from Tijuana!
