Xochi on "That tale of endless miles of sun"
Xochi Solis takes us behind the scenes of her collaborative print series, That tale of endless miles of sun, inspired by a summer residency in Bisbee, Arizona. The series continues her investigation of the borderlands, the geographic and cultural region at the border of the US and Mexico, expressed through color, shape, and strength.
For the suite, 'That tale of endless miles of sun', I reflected heavily on my summer ’18 residence in Bisbee, Arizona and wanted to evoke the colors of dusty back roads at sunset, the carved rocks bleeding rust that I encountered, the honey brown color of the skin of my ancestors and myself, and the contrast of bright greens and blues that sporadically bring calm and cool to a brutal environment.
