The Great Okie Migration by Chotard Mathieu and ALLEK Yannis
Our exhibition is made of eight pictures with captions in the style of Dorothea Lange. Most of these images were taken by this woman and are parts of her work as a photographer and reporter for the American government in the 1930's.The main topic of this exhibition is the Great Okie migration during the Dustbowl, between the 1930's and the 19404's. The natural disasters which hit the Great Plains repetitively during this period led to a mass migrations. Oklahoma is the the state located in the Great Plains with the highest number of people who left.
