Yesterday I photographed the new US/Mexico border wall in Santa Teresa, New Mexico for Bloomberg Business. Driving down empty roads for over an hour with no sign of where to go, we saw a couple longhorns and a little dirt road. We turned left, drove another couple miles, and finally found the wall. It feels imposing, out of place, arbitrary. Birds fly between the diamond slats. It’s quiet, almost silent, but with the strange sense that there are likely people nearby.
