THE CAMPS

Immigrants, displaced and asylum seekers from different countries along south america and Mexico arrive at Ciudad Juarez. Families are forced to camp outside the United States port of entry for months, they are living outside of 3 bridges, the Americas, Santa Fe and Zaragoza all waiting for their citation with US officials. There is no more occupancy in asylum centers in Juarez so families constructed the camps so they could wait for their turn and be closer to the border. These images were taken in the winter of 2019 and 2020.
