Self portrait along the boarder line between Mexico and the United States, shows a lot of meaning. In this painting, Frida makes a clear connection about her feeling s towards the United States. She stands like a statue in elegant pink dress with white gloves between both worlds. On one side, the ancient Mexican ladscape, with its rich warm natural earthy colors, exotic plants and pieces of Aztec sculpture. The forces of nature and the natural life cycle govern the Mexican side. On the other side, the dead, technology-dominated landscape of the United State is portrayed in dull greys and blues. This is definetely influence by the Aztecs since her painting has exotic plants and Aztec sculptures with some ancient landscape.
