Series of 50 x 65 cm collages of aerial photos of Nahr el Bared Palestinian refugee camp- north of Lebanon, from the year 1950 to 2013. The location of the maps in the collages indicates the direction of the flow from and into the camp. The resource of the following maps (1950, 1968, 1994, and 2007) is the Lebanese army, (2013) Google maps.
The tilts in the first three aerial photos are made to point to the north (according to the official mapping system). 2007 is an aerial photo taken by the army during the battles with Fath el Islam and just before the demolition of the camp: a very comprehensive picture and a very precise take.
Collected from Google maps, 2013 aerial photo shows the empty land of the camp after 6 years since the end of the battles. The photo is back to the corner of the collage as the re-refuge is flowing towards the south. Since 2011, the small reconstructed part of the camp started receiving refugees from Syria.
