Ghosts of Alderney follows the research of internationally renowned artist Piers Secunda, who recently spent five years recording stories of slave laborers sent to Alderney. When Hitler's forces invaded the small Channel island in 1941, nobody knew just how brutal the occupation of this piece of UK Crown land would become. Secunda has worked for years to commemorate the slaves who endured random and unprovoked shootings, beatings and starvation. People from all over Nazi Europe were shipped to the Channel Islands to build Hitler's "fortress" against an Allied attack. It was in Alderney however, where the treatment was harshest. Intelligence reports after the liberation reveal that bodies dumped in mass graves were compared to victims of the Belsen concentration camp.
