About the book
Caesura is a collection of photographs about the transitory state of the people who entered Greece after crossing the Aegean Sea - the infamous 'death passage' - on their way from their homelands in Asia and Africa to the land of promise and hope: Europe. The characters in Caesura take on temporary identities as they pose for the camera in frames of transition and uncertainty. The photographs do not attempt to provide answers or make a historic statement about this mass exodus by simply exposing human agony. Rather, they seek to raise questions about the human condition and identity.
