INVISIBLE WALL is a surrealist drawing game conceived by Desert Island to raise funds for migrant rights and facilitate collaboration between artists from different countries. Support the project by ordering this 20” x 30” poster, which includes eight collaborative works from sixteen artists, half from Mexico and half from the United States. **All profits will go to Las Patronas, a group of volunteer women from the town of Guadalupe. Since 1995 the group has provided food and assistance to migrants on their way north through Veracruz. Link in bio. PLEASE SHARE!
