"In the illustrations, the key element is the suitcase in which every person who was forced to leave home tries to contain their whole life and take with them to the unknown future. Far from home, the suitcase becomes the key element that allows a person to feel a connection with the past (...) In conditions of support and warmth, a person can light his star, adapt, become useful and independent even in another country.”
