However, the U.S. military base on the islands continues to operate as usual. What has happened to the Chagos Archipelago?

About the Chagossian artist Audrey Albert
Audrey Albert is currently based in Manchester after studying photography at the Manchester Metropolitan University between 2015 – 2018. Her main creative mediums are digital and analog photography. Audrey’s main body of work Matter Out of Place sheds a light on an unfair and shameful page of Mauritian and British history in which the entire population of The Chagos Archipelago was forcefully displaced from their homeland due to political agendas between 1968 – 1973.
