un puzzle di oggetti per raccontare l’identità dei «clandestini», Manuela De Leonardis, Il Manifesto
I am excited to share the news that this article about my work was published on Saturday in the national Italian newspaper "Il Manifesto."
The article is part of a special edition of the arts section focusing on the U.S. presidential election and the devastating Trump years. The section also features work by Andres Serrano, Joe Wilkes, Greg Iles.
Manuela De Leonardis writes about our "Wall of Shame" and the most recent evolution of the U.S.–Mexico Border Project which I began in 2007.
She mentions the Gingerbread Borderlands piece "Happy Holidays 2018" which is a border scene I made out of laser cut gingerbread and icing. It is a play on the traditional Christmas gingerbread house referencing Trump's policies of separating children from their parents at the border.
