Description
Film, Audio, Video and Digital Art Sculpture and Installations For inSITE97, Miguel Rio Branco presented "Between the Eyes, the Desert/Entre los ojos, el desierto," a triptych of shifting images of the border region's desert landscape, and faces of San Diego and Tijuana residents. The images were set to music and projected onto the wall of a dilapidated room in the ReinCarnation Project in downtown San Diego. Rio Branco wanted the dynamic mirage-like images to reflect the way in which people around the border blend with one another as well as with the surrounding geography. --inSITE97 Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 310, Folder 04, Item 302) [Title, Date].
