Welcome to series 3 of Ireland Creates, the podcast all about Irish storytellers. I hope you are safe and well as you tune into this week's episode. If this is your first time listening, thank you for joining us. In each episode, we hope to share the story behind the storyteller. Each week I speak with creatives based here in Ireland or with a connection to Ireland about their lives, their creative practice and what storytelling means to them.

In this episode, I speak with Vukašin Nedeljković. Vukašin arrived in Ireland as a refugee and has gone on to document the controversial Irish direct provision system which has seen thousands of people housed in so-called temporary accommodation, sometimes for years, as they await a decision on whether or not they have permission to remain in the country. 

Vukašin is an artist, activist and independent scholar. He initiated multidisciplinary platforms Asylum Archive and Fortress EU.
