Teresa Eng - Conditions for Living

Teresa Eng is a Canadian photographer based in London. She is an MA Photography graduate from the London College of Communication and her latest work, Conditions for Living, explores the temporary settlements of northern France from where many individuals attempt to reach the UK.

Teresa has exhibited this body of work at the Broomberg New Contemporaries and at Fresh Faced and Wild Eyed, the annual competition for recent graduates organized by The Photographers' Gallery.

She states: "As foreigners in a foreign land, these migrants are neither here nor there. They arrive on the edges of town overnight, attempting to assimilate themselves into a new and strange environment. There is the tedium that occurs while being in-transit but also the anticipation and hope of what they perceive will one day be ‘home’."
