In Transit

Focusing on the tentative, limbo-like experience of living between different cultures, these five artists explore narratives of immigrants who traverse the no-man’s land existing between home and hope. The lives of those fleeing unsafe, economically depressed homelands toward dreams of a more secure future elsewhere are filled with boredom, sadness, fear, and apathy. Migration is confined by absence: the loss of loved ones, familiar places, and citizenship. The photographs and videos presented here from Germany, Jordan, Lebanon, Italy, and Iran are testaments to this day-to-day survival and struggle to find some sense of normalcy, stability, dignity and a place to call home.
