INVISIBLE AMERICA

THE FACE IS THE INITIAL AND MOST VISIBLE FORM OF EXPRESSION, BUT THERE EXISTS A CERTAIN CLASS OF PEOPLE WHO REMAIN FACELESS AND INVISIBLE TO THE NAKED EYE. THEY WORK BEHIND CLOSED DOORS DUE TO THEIR IMMIGRATION STATUS, SKILLS GAP, EDUCATION LEVEL AND SOCIAL CLASS.

INVISIBLE AMERICA IS AN ONGOING PHOTO SERIES THAT AIMS TO BRING INTO VIEW AND HIGHLIGHT THESE INDIVIDUALS WHO LIE UNNOTICED AND HIDDEN. USING A PORTRAIT STYLE THAT GLORIFIES AND HEROICALLY REPRESENTS OUR SUBJECTS, WE HOPE TO GIVE THEM AN EXPRESSION OF THEIR IDENTITY THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE LOST IN THE SHADOWS.
