The Nobodies

Jazmin Gabriela Flores del Pozo

This was an installation in one of the cells of the prison (JVA-Weimar).

I made a path with dead insects. I collected most of them in the jail,

while I bought the others. I tried to create a link between migration and

fragility - as well as elude to loopholes in the law concerning migrants.

In their own environment, all of these insects are invisible or camouflaged

in nature. But in an urban environment, they are completely vulnerable.

Flies and bees, butterflies and the beetles are exposed. In public space,

people are supposedly part of a mass without identity.

But what happens with people of different races, genders or ages,

who are excluded from it?
