Description

Migrantes is an interactive electronic literature piece combining social media messages and moving images over a map of Mexico. It evokes the fragmented and shifting narratives of migration, displacement, and human resilience.

Artistic Statement

Migrantes explores how digital platforms become both spaces of connection and instruments of control in the experience of migration. The piece visualizes the constant motion and ephemerality of migrant stories, giving voice to the many journeys that shape contemporary mobility.
