Geographic Genealogy is about fragmented copies of different quality images; collected and redistributed to form a cohesive of map of who you are.

The project deals with the process of belonging to a space which exists between the borders of different cultures and countries.

How do photographs function as a tool to remember far away holidays and missed family members? Their nostalgic documentary of a specific locality?

The identity picture that classifies and documents who you are on paper.

The home that sits still or changes.

The portrait.
