Photographer Luke Takata, and naturalist Jack Dash, have collected plants, taken photos and recorded oral histories in the Arizona-Sonora Borderlands since 2017. They have worked alongside ecologists, cattle ranchers, humanitarian aid workers, migrants, hunters, ex-border patrol agents, and Indigenous community members to create an archive of, and to better understand this remote 42-mile section of the US-Mexico border known as the Atascosa Borderlands.
