Alfredo Jaar on his edition Walking: "I witnessed this scene in 1994 in Zaire, today known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo. A refugee is walking. His appearance is similar to most refugees, with bare feet and a cane. He carries just one bag filled with old garments; he has lost everything. This man was just one out of four million Rwandan refugees seeking refuge outside Rwanda or being displaced within Rwanda. I was unable to assist this man in his desperate journey. I remember him walking."
