Abstract
My work is often times a reflection of human connection. I am fascinated by how and why humans develop deep connections to one another. I was captivated by an image I photographed that depicted a bond between two sisters that existed despite their lack of biological relatedness or racial heritage. Many consider home to be where connections and bonds are created and strengthened. Within these walls, most feel they can be the truest form of themselves. It is within that truth that unconditional bonds without regard to race or biological relatedness may be formed. How do these bonds develop among transracial families?
