Chinga La Migra

For the Chinga La Migra (Fuck The Border Patrol) project, the artist obtained over 700 classified internal documents from the Arizona Border Patrol through a hacktivist group. Each document was converted into an RGB visualization based on its binary data. Each retains the original document file name. As many of the individuals involved have been raided by the FBI and arrested, this project seeks to question the notion of illicit data and its subsequent dissemination through translation and transmutation.
