About this work

Description

"Photographer Gideon Mendel has created a powerful installation using objects he gathered during visits to the 'Jungle' refugee camp in Calais. By focusing on items such as toothbrushes, playing cards, worn-out trainers, teargas canisters, and childrens dolls, Mendel conjures alternative portraits of the 'Jungle' residents that also stand in for the plight of displaced people everywhere."
