  • An Afghani boy, who later helped me to enter the disused Ellinikon airport unnoticed, was very keen that I would see with my own eyes the conditions of the space and report on it. Among those I have spoken to, many have asked that I would highlight and report and 'let the world know of their bad conditions'.

  • ‘I was in the jungle for 5 days. When I tried to enter Bulgaria, I was pushed back. Some people died in the jungle because of no food, water and cold weather. I walked for 12 hours. If you don’t have money for an agent you are stuck. The agent is the only choice but they don't care for you.’ Karim, Sofia, Bulgaria.

  • The struggle does not end at the Europe' borders. Control imposed on refugees goes beyond the tightened border security. Unwanted and undesirable people are kept in confined areas in what seems to be a politics of containment.

  • I met O. (name undisclosed) from Nigeria at the RO.DO.PA centre, once a Residence Hotel in Battipaglia, south of Italy. The centre shelters mostly refugees from Africa. Those that have shared their experiences have recounted acts of extreme torture and segregation in Libya, where many have taken a boat from to reach Italy. O. recounted that being in Lybia was something indescribable. In fact, he said if I wanted to know, I should go there. There are no words that can describe that hell. O. -Ro.do.pa. centre, Battipaglia, near Salerno, south of Italy.

  • In Lybia, I went through hell and I have scars on my body. I was in Italy but I was sent back. I have been in the jungle for weeks. The police comes on alternate mornings and we all have to dismount our tents and go out of the forest, otherwise they will break everything and beat you up. Calais, 2019
