I am exploring the liquid border—the imaginary line drawn down the middle of the Rio Grande as it passes between Texas and Mexico. Real, but invisible, the border floats away. But what pain comes across that unmarked frontier, what desperation, what determination! Exploring the photos and satellite data of this mighty river may help us imagine the people struggling across the river, and the trackers from the Border Patrol waiting on the American side. I distort the original, useful, scientific image, taking it apart and rebuilding it with half a dozen applications, just to see what I can make out of the bitmaps, vectors, color palettes, and the spray of code. I struggle with the counterpoint of paint and pixel, the contrast between the prose label and the visual detail, the interaction between what we know and what we see. My prints are markers on the trail, not final destinations. This print is very light. It is designed to be displayed without a frame. It stands about an inch off the wall, hanging on a small railing on the back of the aluminum panel. The surface is laminated, and can easily be cleaned with a soft cotton cloth. Striking in its complexity and beauty, this is a piece that invites your guests to look closely, and discuss what they see. This artwork is documented in the book that catalogs the entire series, The Liquid Border: The Rio Grande from El Paso to the Gulf of Mexico, available on Amazon.

Starting with a Doctorate in Fine Arts from Yale, I worked in conceptual art and concrete poetry, showing in co-op galleries, The Jewish Museum, and the Brooklyn Museum in New York. At Apple, when it was primarily a computer company, I created the style guide used by their technical communication teams; I designed, edited, and wrote content for regular users, and thanks to MacPaint, started taking my artistic practice into the digital realm. I work in multiple applications on a Mac, exploring NASA photographs of the terrain that migrants go through coming to the United States, blended with topographic maps, vector analyses, and color studies. I explore mysterious landscapes, as when the Visitors arrive in Manhattan or New Mexico, strange alien shapes that enter into familiar cities or forests.
