Borderlands is a tribute to a book by the same name written by the queer, chicana poet Gloria Anzaldúa. 

This series highlights parallels between the border and gender identity. The subjects inhabit these portraits between native vegetation and urban structures around the Rio Grande in South Texas. Despite representing a geopolitical structure, the Rio Grande flows and meanders; it is a live, organic structure in constant movement. The borderlands are not defined by one country or another; they are, like gender, in a constant state of transition.
