"We Are Not Just A Number"
This picture of a 10 image series is centered about culture while also looking at the hardships of being an immigrant in another country.
In this instance, we can appreciate our subject´s background is from Trinidad and Tobago, Colombia and India which are represented by different elements in the background.
This project was made to celebrate each persons culture and to set a reminder that immigrant people aren´t "just a number" for diversity statistics in you schools, universities and work places, but they are important members of every society who came to other countries for better opportunities in life and should be treated with the respect they deserve.
With this project I encourage people to think of the challenges that a human might have by living everything behind in their country of origin without sometimes not even knowing another language or having education to move thousands of miles away into a new country with just the hope and promises of freedom and a better life.
This is for every immigrant out there, this our story!
