Alvaro Enciso // Everything Is Stories Podcast

[Tyler Wray]

Hi All

We’re back again with another border-related story and wanted to share our latest podcast episode with everyone here on the list. Many of you are probably aware of Alvaro Enciso and his project placing crosses for deceased migrants throughout the southern Arizona desert in recent years, and we had the fortunate opportunity to spend a good amount of time with him over the course of three visits as we built this story. Can’t speak highly enough of him for being so gracious with his time and the project in general. Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts, and please feel free to share widely!

HERE is a link to the story on our website with some imagery by photographer Clarke Tolton.  And HERE is a direct link to Apple Podcasts.

Where Two Lines Meet

A story of self-discovery in a new land and death in the desert.

Since the year 2000, more than 4,000 border-crossers have met a gruesome fate throughout the Sonoran Desert of Arizona. With over 1,000-and-counting still missing, the numbers have only continued to rise as more attempt the trek each year in pursuit of a better life. This is the story of Alvaro Encisco, an immigrant who found his own version of the myth of the American dream, and with his art, has been on a mission giving a voice to the seekers who have died in search of theirs.
