Almost impossibly powerful and poignant, this multi-media piece presents an image that many who have immigrated to the U.S. must have encountered personally: loved ones left behind as one crosses the border. The painful image is highlighted, almost decoratively, by glitter that renders tears in the loved ones’ eyes. This brilliant touch underscores the emotional content of the piece while adding a twinkle that enlivens the images.
Casi increíblemente poderosa y conmovedora, esta pieza multimedia presenta una imagen que muchos de los que han emigrado a los EE. UU. Deben haber encontrado personalmente: seres queridos que quedan cuando uno cruza la frontera. La imagen dolorosa está resaltada, casi decorativamente, por un brillo que hace que los ojos de los seres queridos se llenen de lágrimas. Este toque brillante subraya el contenido emocional de la pieza y añade un brillo que anima las imágenes.
