DANIEL STIER – IN MY COUNTRY

Posted on 2012-10-08

In my country, a series of portraits depicting immigrants living in London. In each portrait Pakistanis, Poles, Ghanaians, Indians, Peruvians all don their national dress. The dress serves as a symbol of their cultural heritage and lends their portraits a timeless quality. Some wear their outfit only on special occasions and have changed clothes exclusively for the purpose of posing for the photograph. Others present themselves more naturally, their traditional dress also serving as their day-to-day clothing.

Exhibition runs through till October 29th, 2012
