  • On the surface Berlin is a modern city looking to the West whilst reconciling to the past; however beyond the surface, Berlin is pulled in different directions. Still today a fervent movement, mainly in the former Eastern side of the city is resisting to the West and its perceived capitalism.  An occupied house in Warschauer Strasse...This movement is very active in many ways from political rallies, demonstrations, revolts against people and governments seen as symbols of capitalistic policies and views. Least and not last is the creation of "house projects", squatted homes where various activities take place such as printmaking, painting and music. A squatted house in Warschauer Strasse, East Berlin..

  • The majority of refugees that arrive in the Uk are offered provisional housing, vouchers to buy food and are not allowed to seek employment.  This situation meant to be temporary often takes years to settle.  Many kosovan families even after years do not know whether they have their right to stay permanently in the UK.  Refugees see themselves as living in a limbo, unable to look for work and to move freely.  Often the bond between their community is the only attachment that they form, partly because of their common plight and partly because of a need to ascertain their cultural identity.
