Portraits of San Ysidro
Portraits of San Ysidro, a response to coming to know the U.S. community bordering Tijuana, addresses issues of memory, lived experience, and place in a border town where small town Americana and Mexican nationalism, Mexican and American identification and disidentification, rural landscape and militarization, religion and commerce, and family and politics meet. The website Portraits of San Ysidro serves as a variegated entrance into the town—interweaving excerpts from interviews, photographic portraits, field recordings, short essays, and paintings. Here is a sampling of photographs from the project.
