Drawing2811/122

Children's drawing on legal size off-white paper. The composition is focused in the top two-thirds of the page. An inscription reads "martes 18 de octubre de 983" along the top of the page. A large yellow and green truck containing four human figures has been drawn below this inscription, in addition to a small green vehicle. These two vehicles are travelling along a horizontal road. The words "Pi Pi" have been written to the right of the smaller vehicle. A narrow road containing two green vehicles and three yellow vehicles drops down from the horizontal road above, and it appears as though the road is leading to a scene that has been created in the middle of the page. This scene looks like a base or camp, with its five buildings, two trees, six human figures, and one helicopter. The word "von" has been written to the left of the green and yellow helicopter. A small square has been drawn below this scene, and it contains the text "carro para tras ladava la jente para mesas grandes". Two green trees have been drawn to the right of this text box, along with the words "palode mango". The reverse contains an inscription in pencil: "Juventi no can pamento 5".

The bottom left corner contains a helicopter with a pilot and an onlooker, and the word "avion" has been written beside the rotorcraft. An oblong object containing round shapes and a small human face has been drawn in the bottom right corner, and the words "Rio lempa" have been written beside this object.

Children's drawing on legal size off-white paper. The page is divided horizontally by a dark blue band that likely represents a river.

Above the river is a busy scene containing mountains, twenty-eight human figures, a helicopter, and two trees. Nineteen of these human figures are lined up along the river bank, and one of these figures is disproportionately large.

Drawing2811/137

Children's drawing on legal size off-white paper. The top left of the page contains an inscription that reads "¿como era la vida en el salvador". A pink, orange, and brown building has been drawn below this inscription, and the building contains a large human figure flanked on either side by a purple rectangle. Each purple rectangle contains a small orange human figure. This scene inside of the building may represent a parent with their two children in their beds. A large, multicoloured, oblong object has been drawn to the right of the building, and this likely represents a body of water. There are two figures in the object itself, and four figures standing along the edge of the object. The orange figure is holding an object that appears to be a gun. A large green flower has been drawn in the right corner of the page.

A children's drawing on white cardboard based on the artist's experience of fleeing El Salvador for Mexico. The drawing is horizontally divided into nine scenes. The scenes, from the top left corner to the bottom right corner, are as follows: flying to Mexico from El Salvador, arriving in Mexico, meeting with people in front of a large building, a figure watching television, a figure dreaming about his family, figures going to the cinema, three figures learning at a school, a cityscape, and a scene at the zoo. On the reverse, a sheet of lined paper measuring 22 cm x 16 cm has been taped in two corners to the back of the cardboard. This sheet describes the drawing in Spanish. The artist's name has been written on the back as well, on the cardboard itself.
