The Exploited as a reference in a Mohawk rez called Kahnawake

About

“Humans have a deep-seated need for identifying and recognising, this is how we connect. After visiting Kahnawake I came to realise that how we see ourselves, what we identify with, is essential for the community. It is first when we establish who we are we have the possibility to share with others & expand. In many places minorities are rising, and demand not only independence but recognition. It seems as if it is the very acknowledgement that brings redemption and that full acceptance is what we all need to grow — as cultures, nations and individuals. My series of photographs from the Mohawk reservation reveal a different world; meanwhile they give emphasis to how similar we are. “
