His work often shows a social commitment, in this case it concerns the fate of boat refugees. Everyone knows the harrowing images of boat refugees who come from North Africa and wash up on the Spanish coasts. The statue refers to the same problem with its stamps (Shipping, Europe, Tarifa and Antwerp). The figures in the boat seem as anonymous as the illegals who come to seek their fortune in Europe. The multiple was made in 150 copies for the Middelheim Promotors.
