The Expression of Identity - 10/20
Who are we? How do we identify ourselves? There is never a definite answer for that. Maybe the best answer
we could come up with might not do justice to what we actually are. But these questions have ever more relavance
during these testing time.
This is a photo series of people I met and photographed over the years. I do not remember most of their names
but the situations they were photographed have been embedded in my memory. They are people I met randomly and who
identified themselves through their expressions, not just facial but also the situations they were in while being
photographed.
With people wearing masks that cover up a good portion of their face due to the onset of COVID19, it is going to be
more difficult to capture a person's expression in future. Hence this series is even more special for me because I would
not be able to do this for very long time.
The way of life is changing, so are the expressions of identity.
