This photo series takes a closer look at the individuals who contribute to the multicultural society of Australia and aims to foster understanding, empathy, and appreciation for the diverse cultural fabric that shapes Australian society.
The project consists of three interconnected components: photography, interviews, and the website. Each image captures a portrait of an immigrant surrounded by their artifacts, with each object holding a unique story to be shared. The photographs focus on household items and artifacts that immigrants often bring from their countries of origin. Through the interactive platform, viewers can click on different parts of the images to hear the individuals narrate their own stories, creating a personal and immersive experience of cultural exchange.
The project celebrates the richness, diversity, and resilience of Australia’s multicultural communities, highlighting the human stories that form the foundation of the nation’s cultural identity.
*Maintaining the website over time was a challenging process, and what is presented here are the photographs
