Ethni-Cities: a special case of Bom Retiro
Búsqueda de identidad: ¿existe una relación entre el país de origen de la diáspora y el nuevo país? ¿Cómo expresa la diáspora su sentido de pertenencia en diferentes sociedades?
Bom Retiro is a neighbourhood in central São Paulo, Brazil, known as an ethnic enclave. he history of Bom Retiro is intertwined with migratory movements and the establishment of Estação da Luz in 1867, where a large influx of people began to disembark in search of opportunity. Since its beginning, the neighbourhood has attracted diverse ethnic groups, including Italians, Portuguese, Spaniards, Jews, Greeks, Arabs, Cypriots, Armenians, Koreans, Bolivians, Paraguayans, Peruvians, and migrants from other areas of Brazil and the world. It is marked by untold uncomfortableness of communities coexisting but not recognising each other. The photos seek an intersection between the different daily spaces Jews, Koreans, Bolivians, and other ethnicities inhabit in the neighbourhood, with the audacity of imagining new possibilities of human interaction and narratives between them and where each one calls home.
