South border. México-Guatemala part 1. Suchiate river at Hidalgo City and Talismán.
El rio Suchiate hace de frontera natural entre dos territorios que comparten historia y cultura. El flujo migratorio que por aqui pasa camino de EEUU no tiene ningun problema en cruzarlo. Esta es la primera parte de una serie de imágenes que fueron capturadas en "Ciudad Hidalgo" y "El Talismán", en el estado de Chiapas. Colindando con "Ciudad Tecún Umán" y "El Carmen" del lado Guatemalteco, respectivamente. Todo ésto durante las intervenciones artísticas de Mareas Migratorias, a cargo de Oscar Rodriguez y Gloria Godinez. Éstos puntos geográficos son clave para el tránsito de bienes adquiridos en cualquiera de ambos territorios y cruce de personas.

Suchiate´s river is the natural border between these two lands that share history and culture. The migration flow from Central America to EEUU can easily cross that frontier. This is the first part of a serie of images that were captured in Hidalgo City and Talismán during the artistic Interventions of Mareas migratorias. These specific areas are key to smuggling goods from/to both sides of the frontier and people transit.
