Transient Ties

“Transient Ties” looks at the process of alienating oneself from one’s cultural identity, due to forced migration, which continues to occur to political refugees and migrants all over the world. The project was inspired by a story of my grandmother’s forced migration, originally born in northern Greece. Her family and herself escaped their homeland, due to the Greek Civil War (1946-1949), and never returned. Until today, Greece represents a mysterious land to her, from which she was uprooted.
