Fifield-Perez is an artist whose current work examines borders, edges, and the people who must traverse them. In his work, Fifield-Perez’s interdisciplinary practice centers the materiality of paper ephemera, everyday self-documents discarded after having fulfilled their purpose. For Fifield-Perez, printmaking, collage, and painting are ways to visualize and connect mental landscapes of past and present.
