Caption

Housing is one of the necessities of life. Sustenance is also an interpretation of building a complete new district that was destroyed seven years ago by an explosion of a fireworks warehouse. About 400 houses were blown away and about 1,200 homes were damaged leaving 1,250 people homeless. Enschede is the town where I was born and spent my youth nearby the area where the disaster took place. The pano has been made in the heart of this area, and shows a part of the complete new buildings and infrastructure.
