WANDERERS, will it never end?

 

                                                                WANDERERS 03

                   A large group of people who have been dumped in the middle of nowhere.

                                                                    WANDERERS 04

Coming out of the sea and not knowing where they are and not knowing where they want to go.

                                                                 WANDERERS 05

                            Kept in step by wealthy escorts on their journey along the beach.

The great migrations of peoples through war, expulsion, oppression, by another regime are images that I have been constantly confronted with over the years and that are reflected in this, as well as the lack of a future that made Europe a coveted destination. War in Chechnya, Syria, Afghanistan and the consequences of the Iraq war and the IS regime. Revolution in Tunisia. This led to the expulsion of many people who then tried to find shelter in Europe and wandered across this continent.
