The Watchtowers is a visual archive of security and surveillance infrastructure in the U.S. borderlands. Guided by the Electronic Frontier Foundation's (EFF) map of border surveillance towers, I helped to document and map the current moment of U.S. border security along the entire length of the U.S.-Mexico border. More information can be found on the dedicated project website.
My work was supported by the Confluencenter for Creative Inquiry at the University of Arizona and the Mellon Foundation, as well as the W.A Franke Honors College.
