Tejano in Chicago. Time traveler working between the Texas borderlands and Mars.

Born in the southernmost point of the United States. The invisible narratives of La Frontera, the frontier, or the Mexican-American Borderlands in The Rio Grande Valley, Texas, guide my practice. Through photography, video, and installation, I collaborate with my father to show the relationship between a father and son amid aerospace manufacturing and the exploitative past, present, and future of brown labor. My work further speaks to issues of immigration, border technology, and the future of brown labor on Mars.
