In her work, Norma Vila works on analogies and the double meaning of objects, words and concepts, whose starting points originate from personal experiences within her collective environment. Coyote Móvil [Mobile Coyote] is a photo taken while driving from Caguas to San Juan that alludes to the problem of emigration. People who work as intermediaries to cross or smuggle immigrants across the border from Mexico to the United States are known as "coyotes".
