"One day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this."
Omar El Akkad
Caged Rebellion is a photographic series of analog double exposures in which Pro Palestine protests in Brussels, Belgium meet images from the interior of a former Stasi prison for political detainees in Bautzen, Eastern Germany.
The series is supported by analog single exposures of the same locations. In order to enhance the relationship between camera and object, the images of the Stasi prison were shot with a Werramatic, built in the GDR in the 1960s.
