The Franciscan mission church San Jose de Tumacacori was established to convert the Pima Indians to Christianity. The church was constructed between 1800 and 1823, and was abandoned during the Mexican War of 1848. Today it remains a picturesque ruin, its cracking walls streaked with calcium and lime. I made this image from the edge of the old mission’s cemetery – which inspired me to build it around the darkness of a door that once led from the church to the grave.
