On the Fringe is an interactive installation that places butterflies in the context of NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) trade routes for textiles between the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Mexico is the largest market for U.S. technical textiles; raw materials like cotton, wool, and jute are exported to Mexico from the United States.
