| dc.description.abstract | Un gran esfuerzo para sobrevivir is an exhibition about what immigrants crossing into the United States experience as they risk everything for a better life, job, education, or freedom from danger. The installation has a trail of sand simulating the path that undocumented individuals often take to cross the border in hopes of the American dream. Casted feet made of sand are arranged to show the stride and funneling of bodies as they move toward their destination. Overhead, speakers can be heard playing recordings stories and experiences being shared by individuals who have survived the danger of the journey. The exhibition highlights the hardships experienced, and the resilience necessary to overcome. | |
