The series Confín explores the tenuous yet drastic line in which the desert meets the sea. Each seascape is confined by the presence of land, subverting the predominant role of a dangerous sea to a placid one; in turn giving way to an inhospitable landscape with ruthless sunlight. Exploring new materials in the photographic interventions, this series focus and highlight the limits between the shore and the sea. The contrasts between the rigidity of brass and the tense flexibility of the string create an interplay of scale and a sensory perception of landscape.

El Quiebre explores the rocky seascape around a marine spout in northern Mexico. Despite the water shooting into the sky, the piece frames a sky-less landscape, trapping the desert and sea highlighting the turbulent waves of rock and water. Just under 100 km south of the border between Mexico and the United States, El Quiebre points towards a violent break; a fragmentation mirrored in the natural and constructed landscape. The piece, intervened with a brass plate, cuts through the landscape much like “the wall” does.
