Looking for shelter

In 2008, in a photography workshop in Berlin, i was assigned to find the meaning of “Sicherheit” through the lens of my camera. In German, Sicherheit has no specific meaning. Many use it as ‘security’ and ‘safety’ which are not the right translations in German language. One parts of my assignment was to shoot homeless people. Berlin is the largest and the most crowded city in Germany, it has also a large number of homeless people, which is estimated around 50,000.According to German media, Berlin’s homeless increased during 1990s when the Wall came down.
