The Trolley Case
The Trolley Case 1323 Transit Charity_closet Luggage Charity Camp Emotions A basement room filled with donated clothes and other items, which the Caritas volunteers hand out to the refugees at Friedland Transit Camp for a small price holding a symbolic value.

These are the questions that came to me during my time volunteering at the charity closet.

Theft of Things and Time
Theft of Things and Time 1464 Home Loss Immateriality Valuables Biography Theft Migration_politics Temporality The story of Arif Ibrahim, who came to Europe thirteen years ago, is paradigmatic for the situation of asylum seekers, who, due to the European asylum system, are caught in a continuous state of insecurity because of criminalisation, (impending) deportation, and economic precarity.

Freely accessible Wi-Fi enables the exchange of videos, voice messages, pictures, and documents; a practice that uses up more data. When this option is no longer available due to relocation, the modes of communication change dramatically and require the purchase of prepaid credit, which is a major financial challenge for many.

"Less than Half" 1687 Cosmetics Oppression Freedom Women’s_rights Dignity Nishtman Abdollahi is a Kurdish political activist and artist from Western Iran. Her main reasons for leaving the country were her personal situation, and also the oppression of women in Iran in general.

His feet lean against the heater, showing it is a cold day. Next to him are a teapot and two empty glasses. Judging by the simple furniture, one could say that he is in a workers' home.
The Winter Jacket
The Winter Jacket 1740 Charity_closet Uncertainty Clothes Dignity Comfort Collecting It was an unruly jacket. It was too bulky to just fit into the woman's bag. I saw her take off the winter jacket as she stood behind the wall of the charity closet and tuck it into her bag with great difficulty before going inside. Puzzled, I wondered about the reason for what she was doing.

Tableware Quarrels
Tableware Quarrels 1764 Home Camp_life Dignity Dishware&cutlery Total_institution In transit camps, very different concepts, ideas, practices, and materialities collide regarding what is understood as a dignified and appropriate accommodation.

Donations - true or supposed charity 1852 Valuables Clothes Dignity Charity Worn-out shoes with holes in the soles, clothes with burn marks or torn linings, handed in as donations at the Caritas clothing store in Friedland.

And what is true or supposed charity?

The self-made barbecue
The self-made barbecue 1878 Dignity Camp_life Transit Artwork Craft Late summer 2017: Family R. from Afghanistan reaches Friedland after about two and a half years on the run. Times in camps are always times of waiting, of living in transition and of not arriving.

In the case of Rasul R., this was the construction of a barbecue, which is still used today in many activities in the FriedlandGarten.
