About this work

Cecilia Mandrile’s print "Buenos Aires" is a small, computer-made image. It’s part of a set of ID cards she made between 2002 and 2004. Each card plays with tourist photos and shows handmade dolls with her face. She calls these cards "ID" for Intensively Displaced. They show the hard moves many migrants face and the pressure to keep leaving home. Want to see more? Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
