This series of six textiles was created using natural dyes that replicate the range of greens characteristic of night vision recordings. Produced in collaboration with female artisans from San Agustín Etla, Oaxaca between 2024 and 2025, the pieces feature a selection of images related to surveillance technologies used along the northern border: a desert coyote caught in a crosshair, a group of migrants climbing The Wall, a view of the sky framed by nocturnal vegetation, drone diagrams, a soldier wearing a surveillance helmet being recorded by another night vision device, among others.

By depicting these motifs through the technique of felting, traditional craft practices are traversed by images of contemporary conflicts that deeply affect various communities and regions of the country—conflicts that are rarely represented in the more conventional forms of so-called “folk art” historically promoted by Mexican cultural nationalism.

Produced in collaboration with the Felting Studio at Centro de las Artes de San Agustín Etla (CaSa): Marcela Ortega, Alejandra Sánchez Salgado, Blanca Miguel Doquiz, Fátima Armengol Bustos, Xochitl Ruíz Nuñez.
