Jeremy Green “Native Sun” 08/05/19

The Rio Grande border in the Big Bend where this portrait was made is remote and deceptively quiet. A shallow river crossing here has been in use for probably thousands of years by native peoples as well as by others in more recent times. Beneath the surface and in the bright light of day there is a shadow of tension, pride, fear, and anger at play. That is what this image portrays to me.
