Working in eight cities across four continents, Andrew McConnell has photographed urban refugees and documented their daily concerns in Hidden Lives, a project in collaboration with the International Rescue Committee (IRC) and the European Commission’s humanitarian aid and civil protection department (ECHO).

An exhibition of the work opened at London’s St Pancras International on 15 January 2013 and will be on show until 31 January 2013.
