Postcommodity is Raven Chacon, Cristóbal Martínez, and Kade L. Twist. On today’s episode, we discuss at length their work Repellent Fence. A project almost ten years in the making, Repellent Fence will appear floating over the towns of Agua Prieta, Mexico and Douglas, AZ, USA this October – bisecting the US/Mexico border. The work consists of oversized “scare-eye” balloons – an ineffective bird repellent product which functions for the artists as an indigenous readymade and semiotic vehicle. We discuss this work, land art, borders, and keeping one’s eyes open to the politics of place. Time Codes: Music: Four Tet – Parallel Jalebi
