In 1953 the United States and Spain signed a mutual defense agreement and built an aero-naval base in the town of Rota, Cádiz. Of the town's eight thousand acres some twenty-four hundred belong to the base, drawing a constant fence through the landscape — a physical barrier through whose gaps North American customs and traditions seep into the small community. Lagata's family moved to Rota in the 1970s and he grew up amid these influences; from 2011 he portrays the people, places and signals that shape his reality, working through questions of identity, roots and memory.
