介绍:
There’s so much talk in the news today about refugees. Some people embrace them, others reject them, while more still don’t know what to make of some of the most vulnerable people in society. But it’s not a new phenomenon. Almost 30 years ago, when Iraq invade Iran, Camilla Douraghy – a ten year old girl at the time – lost the world as she knew it, and started a new one with her family in Switzerland. She recalls that story against the current geopolitical backdrop and how politics or, more simply, people have shaped her work as a photographer. I’m very humbled to have one her works at my home and, so, I can testify to how it continues to move me in new and unexpected ways. Coincidentally, I sat down for this podcast with Camilla in Basel, the town in Switzerland which became her second childhood home.
