The Fence
The Fence. July 2014. A section of the controversial US-Mexico border fence expansion project crosses previously pristine desert sands at sunrise on May 24, 2014 between Yuma, Arizona and Calexico, California. The United States’ border with Mexico is nearly 2000 miles long and is blocked by numerous natural and man-made barriers. As debates over immigration reform heat up in the US, this work examines the intimate effects of The Fence. Shot on assignment for MSNBC.com
