Towards a Promised Land
An installation made collaboratively with asylum seekers and other migratory families
Margate, England
July 2005–July 2006

Towards a Promised Land involves a diverse range of young people who have arrived on the Isle of Thanet from different parts of England and beyond. Working with Wendy Ewald, the children learn, through photography, to explore and understand their worlds and express their experiences of relocation and the search for a better life. Ewald has taken black-and-white portraits of the children and the possessions they have brought with them, evocative of the homes and lives they have left behind, whether in Belarussia, Belfast, Manchester, or the Congo. The portraits will be enlarged and displayed as banners in locations around Margate from July 2005 to July 2006. 

A book resulting from the exhibition, Towards a Promised Land, will be published by Steidl Verlag in December 2006.
