Description
-
The purpose of this portrait project is to display a personal experience of migration, as well as the integration into a new culture through one’s work and passion. It is to exemplify how interactions within a new culture aid to solidifying an identity that encompasses many different cultures, lifestyles, and personal experiences. Through an interview, captured on film, it is seen that there are many different aspects of interactions which provide an understanding of how an identity is established and then developed throughout life. Living within a new culture, and immersing oneself in a daily routine, it is evident that each person adapts to their new life differently. As seen in this depiction of a first person experience of immigration, work is a large part of a person’s life, and can have a great deal of influence on their identity.
