BORDERS - Jean-Michel André
The starting point for this project was the Calais Jungle, on the eve of the shantytown's evacuation in 2016. Jean-Michel André continued his photographic work for three years, in France, Italy, Spain and Tunisia. Everywhere, he met refugees seeking shelter. Women, children and men united in the hope of making the final crossing. This project takes us on a journey of exile and wandering, but also of hope and resistance. The writing of Jean-Michel André and Wilfried N'Sondé questions our relationship with others, and explores notions of real and imaginary borders.
