WELL-KNOWN IMMIGRANT FAMILY ATTEMPTS TO CROSS THE BORDER FOR REFUGE, A.D. 1
Painting "Flight to Egypt" by José Cruz
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all* men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
all* = all people
We must hold, protect, nurture, and evolve this sacred witness.
Guided by early Surrealist Collagists,
I am drawn to see deeply into scenes
from our cultural archives of mass-produced illustrations
and vintage found photos depicting where we have lived,
and to add images as new witnesses to these portrayals
to depose the secrets of how we have lived
inside, outside, and between the walls
that are our shared architectural bodies,
built to shelter but also to shape and contain us.
