        Cover of the October 2008 issue

        This collage was made from paper, cardboard, and found objects. The face represents the population living in the US-Mexico border region, a region that covers 100 kilometers to the north and south of the international divide. The face is composed of symbols and colors taken from the US and Mexican flags and currency. The blue ribbon that runs through the middle of the collage suggests the Rio Grande, which extends from the Gulf of Mexico to the cities of El Paso, Texas, and Ciudad Ju醨ez, Chihuahua, Mexico, and serves as the political boundary between the two countries. The artist抯 idea in creating this collage was to reflect not only the uniqueness of both the US and Mexican residents in the region but also to convey the message that these groups have much in common. In addition to sharing the same geography and environment, residents share heritage, lifestyle, and culture. Along with the rich heterogeneity of the border population, there is also a common regional identity.

        Sobre Esta Imagen

        Este collage fue hecho de papel, cart髇, y materiales de desecho. El rostro representa la poblaci髇 que vive a lo largo de la frontera M閤ico-EE.UU., una regi髇 que cubra 100 kil髆etros al norte y sur de cada lado de la divisi髇 internacional. El rostro est?formado por s韒bolos y colores tomados de las banderas y monedas de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos y los EE.UU. La cinta azul en el centro del collage sugiere el R韔 Bravo, el l韒ite pol韙ico entre los dos pa韘es que va desde el Golfo de M閤ico a las ciudades de El Paso, Tejas, y Ciudad Ju醨ez, Chihuahua, Mexico. La idea de la artista en crear este collage era reflejar las caracter韘ticas 鷑icas de los residentes de la frontera entre los Estados Unidos Mexicanos y los EE.UU. y tambi閚 dar el mensaje que estos grupos tienen mucho en com鷑. Adem醩 de compartir la misma geograf韆 y ambiente, los residentes comparten herencia, estilo de vida, y cultura. Junto con la heterogeneidad rica de la poblaci髇 fronteriza, tambi閚 existe una identidad regional com鷑.
