WANDERING SUITCASE

چمدان سرگردان

IMG_9523.JPG

The suitcase symbolizes the difficult moments filled with nostalgia and sadness that accompany the immigrant experience. Each journey is a reminder of the loved ones and the land left behind, a feeling of wandering, hope, fear, and deep longing.

For those who have emigrated, the fear of being forgotten and alone always looms in their minds. The English newspaper in the background serves as a poignant commentary on the immigrant experience, capturing the mood of a dislocated soul trying to find their footing in a new world. Old photos and books serve as a vital tether to our past lives, the only tangible connection to the land and loved ones we left behind.

 

The stark black and white tones and the somber ambiance of the imagery evoke a sense of alienation and detachment from the unknown environment.

WANDERING SUITCASE

This collection is a poetic and evocative exploration of the pain and tribulations encountered by immigrants as they navigate the difficult path of displacement and cultural assimilation. Through this artistic and emotional lens, I aim to inspire greater empathy and understanding towards the struggles of the immigrant community, and to offer a glimpse into the universal human experiences of longing, nostalgia, and the quest for belonging.

The Wandering Suitcase Collection transcends the boundaries of ethnicity, culture, and geography, inviting you to embark on a visual odyssey through the universal human experience of searching for a place to call home.
