Description
Sculpture and Installations
Located at the Centro Cultural Tijuana, Playas de Tijuana, and at the Santa Fe Depot in San Diego, Mexico City-artist Eloy Tarcisio's project for inSITE94, "The Line/La Linea," played on the notion of the border as a line vis-a-vis the artist's introduction of parodying new lines. Each location will include a line, each constructed of a different material, and these materials will be somehow related to Mexico and the United States. --inSITE94
