In "Tierra Sin Males," embedded within the sphere is an image of a highway sign near the US-Mexico border warning drivers not to hit immigrants as they flee across the road. It rolls up, catching slightly over the edge, contorts, distorts. It is a spinning, spiraling, fracturing video piece calling forth the horrors experienced by immigrants as they attempt to make their way to a new life.
The piece is digitally generated. It is accompanied by a deep reverberating sound track.
"TIERRA SIN MALES" hovers in disequilibrium, precarious dislocation, extending questions. It premiered at TRA, Venice Biennale 2011.
