The hot pink seesaws are built between El Paso, Texas, and Ciudad Juárez in Mexico's Chihuahua State. The project comes at a time when the border has captured the nation's attention due to reports of ill-treatment of migrants at U.S. border stations.

"The wall became a literal fulcrum for U.S.-Mexico relations and children and adults were connected in meaningful ways on both sides with the recognition that the actions that take place on one side have a direct consequence on the other side," Rael said in his Instagram post.
