The aseptic aspect of the facility in the pictures is what most calls my attention. This neatness stands at great odds with the dubious, illegal, conflicting, murky reality of migrant lives. It all seems accessible and, in many ways, even comfortable. Yet, the pictures purposefully leave outside any images that show this is a detention center. Cells are ironically called “east/west housing” -this is no housing; this is a place of abandonment.
