The town of Frontera Corozal was created in the 1970s as a modernisation and urbanisation project in Mexico. 601 Chol families were relocated to identical plots of land by the Usumacinta River. I asked the citizens of the town to physically draw in space the contours of an imagined natural landscape or of their own constructed space. I worked with the community council (18 comuneros, all men) to make an inventory of all that exists within the town. The inventory was then narrated by a town council member through the make-shift speaker system that serves as the townʼs preferred method of public communication. This project was part of an event organised by the curatorial group Laboratorio 060.
