Photograph and Poem. 2016.

Forward marching, white boys in bleu.
Radios beep orders
Dem boys know what to do

Run em down, into the ground,
Those endless hopes forged by blood and oil
Tread em deep, deep into the soil

Where seeds are buried life will flow
a seed on a moon is till destined to grow.

Eerie looking shipping containers have been adapted for refugee accommodation. Bordered with barbed wire fencing and requiring fingerprint recognition for entry, this sterile camp within the camp is organised by the French government and only accessible to those that claim asylum within the French system, which is apparently an unattractive prospect for many.

Most people in the camp find accommodation in temporary tents or shelter structures, the majority of which are comprised of parts donated by international contributors.

Photograph and thoughts.. 2016.

Borders are imaginary features of nationhood that determine where some people can and can't go. Two humans embrace following the end of a hard day's work building a social centre, one is a volunteer the other an asylum seeker. People make bonds, greed makes borders.

The skeleton of a social centre. The building work had been completed by a mixed team of refugees and volunteers.
