‘One refugee, whose photos feature in the exhibition, arrived in Calais from Eritrea in October last year. “We crossed through the Sahara, Libya, Italy, France. It was a very difficult situation. It was winter also, daily rain. The situation was very harsh. Maybe the exhibition will explain to some people what is happening, what the situation is like in Calais. We are just asking for freedom.”‘
