Crocodile Seeking Refuge

Work:: Crocodile Seeking Refuge (S841063509)

Lifting the lid on the asylum stories behind the headlines, this piece weaves together the lives of five individuals who have sought refuge in the UK. From Darfur to Iraq, each has been forced to flee in the face of death and each is haunted in a different way by the past. A poignant piece, filled with humour, that delves into the heart of the asylum debate. The title is derived from a proverb - a crocodile trying to escape the rain jumps in the river, as those fleeing in exile sometimes only add pain to their misfortune.
