Embarcations

Below you will find one of the inspirations for this project. A very urgent situation in the world that we see through these representations in the media but which nevertheless makes us think of what a voyage means and is, especially for people who are displaced and have no possibility of returning.

Lampedusa, the southernmost point in Europe, has been the first landing for many displaced people escaping the conflicts from the Middle East.

Please see below a short film about Lampedusa.

And the most poignant portrait of Lampedusa and Immigration, is Raphael Cuomo and Maria Iorio's film Sudeuropa
