Fragments in Flight is a bilingual letterpress and reduction linoleum print created in the tradition of printmaking as a vehicle for social dialogue and collective empowerment. The work celebrates resilience, memory, and the enduring struggle for justice in our present time. Interwoven fragments of red, yellow, blue, and black form a dynamic composition that suggests movement, turbulence, and hope. Phrases in English and Spanish—Resistance is our inheritance, Un mundo mejor es posible, Justice lives, Contra viento y marea—emerge from the layered surface like voices rising through time. In the spirit of the letterpress tradition, where text and image meet to amplify ideas, each carved and printed layer carries the rhythm of persistence, echoing unseen forces that shape history and transformation. The fractured yet interdependent forms speak to how communities resist fragmentation, finding strength through solidarity and cultural memory. Vibrant and rhythmic, Fragments in Flight becomes both a visual poem and a call to action, affirming that resistance, justice, and imagination are legacies that continue to move us forward.
