Hostile Terrain 94 Exhibit

Cabrillo College is proud to host the memorial installation Hostile Terrain 94 at the Watsonville Center in the Spring of 2025. Hostile Terrain 94 is a participatory exhibition created by the Undocumented Migration Project, a non-profit organization that focuses on the social process of immigration and raises awareness through research, education, and outreach. The exhibit is composed of approximately 3,800 handwritten toe tags that represent migrants who have died trying to cross the Sonoran Desert from the mid-1990s to 2023. These tags are geolocated on a large wall map of the Arizona-Mexico border, showing the exact locations where human remains were found.
