This print is a reflection on those who perish crossing the border — lives lost in silence, their bodies never recovered, their names never spoken again. The faded flower evokes fragility and disappearance, a life once vibrant now barely visible. At the center of each bloom, a red mark pulses like a wound — or a memory that refuses to fade. These flowers are not just symbols of mourning, but quiet testaments. They ask us to remember what the desert tries to erase.
