Did You Know?

Although the title inscribed on the print reads "El Rio" (River), the artist later changed the title to the one seen here.

Description

Fidencio Fifield-Perez crossed the border from Mexico to the United States as a young boy, and this experience has informed prints such as this one. Two boys, presumably the artist and his brother, stand knee-deep in water, working together to gather shells. In such images, Fidencio-Perez hopes to highlight the everyday lives of immigrants.
