“A human being is a stranger to the world, is a stranger among the people and is a stranger to himself” – B.-C. Han.
This publication is an artistic examination of the inevitable process of self-alienation, which I was facing living in foreign countries and cultures. Because of the constant change and self-adaptation, I got the idea that there is no fixed identity (in me).
To find it out I was researching philosophical, psychological, historical and scientific aspects of self and self-alienation.
Part of alumni's group exhibition, HfK Bremen, May 2018.
