Based on research in one of Brussels central neighbourhoods, Molenbeek,
where the daily life experience of a large amount of its inhabitants is
characterized by the feeling of exclusion rather than post modern
‘intermingling’, this paper seeks to portray the everyday experience of
migrant carpentry apprentices through visual and textual storytelling. By
painting a different picture than the recently dystopical images of
Molenbeek and its inhabitants depicted by the international media, the
presentation will aim to offer an insight into existential demands,
constraints, dilemmas, potentialities, uncertainties, and the ‘struggle for
being’ (Jackson 2005: x) that ultimately play into what it means to
construct a life in the centre, but yet on the margins, of a European city.
