Abstract

This photo essay focuses on the landscapes of the Sonoran Desert—and the imperialist project of a border wall between the U.S. and Mexico—as a way of investigating the manner in which something as generic as a wall takes on particular and discrete politico‐affective forms. This short provocation explores the ways that violent and distasteful objects create, and subsequently come to characterize grotesque spectacles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
