In Caracas, Mairin Reyes is tasked with clearing an abandoned house, a work reflective of Venezuela's larger migration crisis. With nearly eight million people having left the country due to a prolonged democratic crisis and economic collapse, homes are now silent witnesses to personal histories. Reyes's job involves dismantling lives, cleaning years of dust, and preparing these spaces for new beginnings. This growing crisis not only affects those who leave but also burdens the communities and countries receiving these migrants, highlighting the widespread implications of displacement.
Mairin Reyes's task of clearing out abandoned homes reflects the emotional toll of Venezuela's migration crisis, as families have left behind memories and belongings.
As Venezuela experiences an unprecedented wave of migration, the legacy of those who leave is seen in the physical remnants left behind in their homes.
