Assimilation is an ongoing photography and video project rooted in my own intercultural marriage. The work looks at what it means to build a life between cultures, where language, tradition, and identity are constantly being negotiated inside everyday domestic spaces.

Rather than focusing on public narratives of immigration, this project lives in quieter moments. The guilt of leaving things behind, the pressure to adapt, and the strange, often invisible work of translating yourself for the people you love. Many of the images are constructed or staged, using still life and subtle interventions to reflect the emotional weight carried inside ordinary objects and routines.

At its core, Assimilation is about what is gained, what is lost, and what is slowly reshaped when two lives, and two cultures, try to become one. The work is less about resolution and more about the ongoing, imperfect process of learning how to live between worlds.
