THEME: Migration
The concept of emigration has existed since the first
hominids learned to walk. To move around, for social reasons or just for
surviving, has always foot-printed the route of our species. Since our remote
African origin until today, humans have explored the whole planet forming a
wide range of settlements, apparently different, but with the same necessities.
Nowadays, for some countries of the so called first world, immigration is
contemplated almost like a plague: solid metal walls have been built to protect
their borders and tough strict control systems are used in their customs.
However, migration can´t be stopped and human beings, the direct descendents of
hominids that knew no frontiers, will continue to move around the world.
