About
Portraits of identity, immigration and belonging
I was born in India and raised in India and England. Since 1969 I have lived, worked and raised a family in Belfast with my Northern Irish husband. He wanted to live here, and I became an immigrant.
People still ask me where I am really from. My work explores immigration, identity and racism through portrait photography and text. These issues are personal, both to me and to the people I photograph.
My images have been shown in solo and group exhibitions that acknowledge the overt and systemic racism that exists in Northern Ireland. I continue to work within these issues, exploring the effects of colonisation on society today.
