Abstract
This article examines an expansive mural project by Chicago-based painter Hector Duarte, located in his hometown pueblo of Caurio de Guadalupe, Michoacan, within the context of the massive immigration reform protests across the U.S. in 2006. The study discusses how the form, subject matter, and the process of creation of Mariposas migrantes transcends boundaries, including art historical categories and national borders. The study includes a map capturing the geographic distribution of hundreds of diverse artists who have collaborated on the mural project, reifying Duarte's transnational vision.
