« Migrant » is a serie of 13 images taken in Lesbos during August 2016. Lesbos is a greek island and it’s the closest European territory to Turkey (less than 15km). Most migrants in Turkey try to cross borders by taking this route by boats at night. Once they have reach Lesbos, they get placed into camps for a variable amount of time (months of more) waiting to be allowed to move somewhere else in Europe.
« Migrant » is not a photo-reportage.
