You Are Aquí: Freeway At Night
title You Are Aquí: Freeway At Nightdescription Cuban-born artist Arturo Cuenca was drawn to work with the visual language of billboards that crowd the US-Mexican border crossing at San Ysidro. With "You Are Aquí" Cuenca pointed to the obvious - locating border crossers exactly at the point of transition between the two countries. Borrowing from the visual language of the surrounding billboards. Cuenca constructed a new billboard with a manipulated satellite image of the border and had it installed on the Puente Mexico, the pedestrian bridge that crosses the lines of vehicular border traffic. Acting as a location marker, the work was seen by more than 45,000 commuters daily. --inSITE2000 Photographs Puente Mexico, San Ysidro, San Diego, California, United States Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 309, Folder 03, Item 077) [Title, Date].
