Giant metal humans, their flesh painted to look like raw meat, push against a border fence.
The original 2003 concept had the figures leaning on the actual border fence, first on the Mexican side and then on the United States side. But concerns about border security caused the project to be scrapped on the U.S. side, and instead the installation traveled to the University of Arizona mall as a temporary exhibition. It was installed permanently at this location in 2005.

Digger monument to 'borderbusters' with an 'Irish Unity Now sign' on the County Fermanagh side of the border in the north with County Cavan. Border busters kept the border roads open between Ireland and Northern Ireland which were blocked by British Army Forces enforcing a hard border with military checkpoints during The Troubles. This lasted up until the Good Friday Agreement in 1998. The digger was originally bought for £3000 in 1992 by locals.
