Les migrants

Résumé du livre

The series of photographs was taken in Paris, near Villemin Square, a place where many Afghan migrants gather. There they sleep out of sight of a world that does not want to see them. Both present and absent, they remind us of the bodies found on war battlefields, bodies of a war that is held at a distance. The images also feature a series taken in the woods of Calais. The photographs are imbedded amongst diary pages in Farsi written by Jawad, a young refugee who describes his journey through Western Europe, various jails and his quest for refuge.
