Description: TBW Books, 2020. 34 x 28.5 cm. 136 pp. Hardcover. Illustrated in b/w throughout. - Introductory text by José Ángel Navejas in English and Spanish. - Between 1983 and 1987 along the California/Mexico border, social documentary photographer Ken Light (b. 1951) took his Hasselblad camera and flash and rode along with US Border Patrol agents in the middle of the night as they combed the Otay Mesa looking for 'illegal aliens'. He was there when they were apprehended - captured by authorities as well as the photographer?s flash. The black and white images are stark, impromptu mug shots in the desert, taken at a moment of extreme vulnerability, when hope gave way to despair, migrants caught in a cruel game of hide and seek. - New copy
