Te Doy mi Mano

TE DOY MI MANO is an additional device that helps illegal immigrants or “hope-seekers” cross the border from Mexico to the USA. The hope-seekers face many dangerous obstacles when crossing the border: dangerous natural elements in the Sonoran Desert to abduction, rape, and even the border control units. There are people, systems, and devices that help the hope-seekers in the circumstances. TE DOY MI MANO is a hidden waypoint, which adds to the existing pool of systems and devices. These plants are placed throughout the desert as a part of the family. Each plant will tell the hope-seekers, who are taking this dangerous journey, where their sisters, brothers, or cousins are. Mainly, each plant will tell what lies ahead and how to continue. TE DOY MI MANO's ultimate purpose is to give a lending hand to the hope-seekers in reaching their destination.
