“‘La Frontera’ takes stock of a dream shared by all of our African, Asian, European and Indigenous ancestors alike: a dream of the Americas in the context of freedom and liberation for everyone. The work references the borders one must confront in pursuit of this dream: the physical U.S.-Mexico border and its Mediterranean counterparts as well as institutionalized borders that impose divisions between races and economic classes. Ultimately, ‘La Frontera’ posits the potential of dismantling these borders.” — Erin Currier
