Transit

How does it feel to leave the safety of home and not be able to return? How do you survive at subsistence level? What is life like for a child who is forced to flee from his home? What is it like to live in constant fear for your life and of losing those close to you? For almost seven years, photographer Espen Rasmussen has travelled the world to document refugees and displaced people. The book TRANSIT tells the stories of some of the 43.2 million people on the run in the world today. From the makeshift camps in DR Congo to the slums of Colombia, the book presents stories of everyday life and the challenges displaced people and refugees meet every day, no matter in which country or which continent they find themselves.
