Presentation on the photographic series

“Journey for Universal Identity”
Navigating identities: is there a relationship between Diaspora’s homeland and new land? How do diasporas express their sense of belonging in multiple societies?, Youth and their roots: what is it like to be born or grow up as a member of the diaspora; how can the youth connect with their homeland?
The destiny of being born and growing up as a member of the diaspora is like a flying migratory bird or a lotus in the sky. Searching for and keeping the roots and identity is a kind of life homework for the diaspora members and the next generations.

Photo series is about 3-year-old twin boys’ journey to “Universal identity”. The twins were born into a multicultural family, and they spent 4 years on the road by bicycle with daddy during their world tour, which concept was “a Universal School (kindergarten)”. After the pilgrimage journey through human society, the planet and global society became the family and New-Homeland of the twin boys. And the boys realized that the question of “Who I am?” is the first before “Quo Vadis?!”

The series expresses common sense and important characters of Youth and their roots & Navigating identities of the transnational diaspora’s universal identity.
