From UTEP Rubin Center:
“In Pasaportes Perdidos, border artist and activist Edgar Picazo Merino explores what it means to be fronterize, living a bilingual, bicultural, binational identity at the US-Mexico border. Through a series of found objects and multimedia works, Picazo explores the delicate balance a life lived between and within the cities of El Paso and Juarez. In the making of this work, he set out over the course of a year to challenge the mediated tropes of the border by delving into a broad range of literature in border studies, both local and comparative, and then complementing that with reflections on his own lived experience at the border, and conversations with an extended and dynamic cross-border community.”
