Swept away

Since day one, refugee crisis was the "issue" to discuss in Turkey, the sudden surge of the refugees continued everyday, and they were considered as "guests". There was no plan for their future in the country, or their lives in camps and shelters, no education and health insurance was provided. So after a while the "guests" started to move on and leave the country, using it as a bridge or a gate to Europe. And suddenly the refugee problem that European countries chose to ignore for so long was at their door. Their lives in camps, on the roads were filmed and photographed by the photojournalists. The figures on the leaves are copied from daily magazines and newspapers showing their real life experiences and struggles. And the leaves are collected everyday from the streets of Tranas.
