New Londoners: Reflections on Home
Multiple contributors
New Londoners: Reflections on Home is a collection of photographs and stories by young refugees who have been mentored by a selection of London's most established and up and coming photographers. Through the work we glimpse a side of London little seen and understood, from the point of view of some of the city’s newest arrivals. It reflects on their experiences of home: both the place they have left and the place where they have arrived.
