Join the conversation with Laurie Smith - photographer, art activist, and journalist. Pulled to the El Paso–Juárez borderlands by her West Texas roots, Laurie photographs the migration crisis on both sides of the Rio Grande and the environmental impact of the border wall cutting through the Chihuahuan Desert. As an art activist, Laurie aims to make people care—evoking compassion and challenging complacency. By highlighting the moral and social divisions of today, she encourages dialogue about legal, fact-based solutions. Laurie approaches her subjects honestly, with only her Leica and a monopod over her shoulder as she documents the unfolding story.
Come listen to Laurie speak on her experiences. Know Her Story.
